TL;DR: A facile synthetic strategy for nitrogen-deficient graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3 Nx) is established, involving a simple alkali-assisted thermal polymerization of urea, melamine, or thiourea, with superior visible-light photocatalytic performance compared to pristine g-C2 N4.

TL;DR: This approach yields N-CNS with a high nitrogen content and comparable oxygen reduction reaction catalytic activities to commercial Pt/C catalysts in alkaline media.

TL;DR: This study offers a promising and sustainable route for the fixation of atmospheric N2 using solar energy by synthesising defect-rich ultrathin anatase nanosheets with an abundance of oxygen vacancies and intrinsic compressive strain through a facile copper-doping strategy.

TL;DR: A well-dispersed Co,N co-doped carbon nanoframework with hierarchically porous structure with comparable oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalytic activity to that of commercial Pt catalysts with the same loading is synthesized via a mesoporous-silica-protected calcination strategy.
