As a fascinating conjugated polymer, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has become a new research hotspot and drawn broad interdisciplinary attention as a metal-free and visible-light-responsive photocatalyst in the arena of solar energy conversion and environmental remediation. This is due to its appealing electronic band structure, high physicochemical stability, and “earth-abundant” nature. This critical review summarizes a panorama of the latest progress related to the design and construction of pristine g-C3N4 and g-C3N4-based nanocomposites, including (1) nanoarchitecture design of bare g-C3N4, such as hard and soft templating approaches, supramolecular preorganization assembly, exfoliation, and template-free synthesis routes, (2) functionalization of g-C3N4 at an atomic level (elemental doping) and molecular level (copolymerization), and (3) modification of g-C3N4 with well-matched energy levels of another semiconductor or a metal as a cocatalyst to form heterojunction nanostructures.

Graphitic Carbon Nitride (g-C3N4)-Based Photocatalysts for Artificial Photosynthesis and Environmental Remediation: Are We a Step Closer To Achieving Sustainability?

Semiconductor-based photocatalysis is considered to be an attractive way for solving the worldwide energy shortage and environmental pollution issues. Since the pioneering work in 2009 on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) for visible-light photocatalytic water splitting, g-C3N4 -based photocatalysis has become a very hot research topic. This review summarizes the recent progress regarding the design and preparation of g-C3N4 -based photocatalysts, including the fabrication and nanostructure design of pristine g-C3N4 , bandgap engineering through atomic-level doping and molecular-level modification, and the preparation of g-C3N4 -based semiconductor composites. Also, the photo-catalytic applications of g-C3N4 -based photocatalysts in the fields of water splitting, CO2 reduction, pollutant degradation, organic syntheses, and bacterial disinfection are reviewed, with emphasis on photocatalysis promoted by carbon materials, non-noble-metal cocatalysts, and Z-scheme heterojunctions. Finally, the concluding remarks are presented and some perspectives regarding the future development of g-C3N4 -based photocatalysts are highlighted.

Polymeric Photocatalysts Based on Graphitic Carbon Nitride

A review on g-C3N4-based photocatalysts

Solar driven catalysis on semiconductors to produce clean chemical fuels, such as hydrogen, is widely considered as a promising route to mitigate environmental issues caused by the combustion of fossil fuels and to meet increasing worldwide demands for energy. The major limiting factors affecting the efficiency of solar fuel synthesis include; (i) light absorption, (ii) charge separation and transport and (iii) surface chemical reaction; therefore substantial efforts have been put into solving these problems. In particular, the loading of co-catalysts or secondary semiconductors that can act as either electron or hole acceptors for improved charge separation is a promising strategy, leading to the adaptation of a junction architecture. Research related to semiconductor junction photocatalysts has developed very rapidly and there are a few comprehensive reviews in which the strategy is discussed (A. Kudo and Y. Miseki, Chemical Society Reviews, 2009, 38, 253–278, K. Li, D. Martin, and J. Tang, Chinese Journal of Catalysis, 2011, 32, 879–890, R. Marschall, Advanced Functional Materials, 2014, 24, 2421–2440). This critical review seeks to give an overview of the concept of heterojunction construction and more importantly, the current state-of-the art for the efficient, visible-light driven junction water splitting photo(electro)catalysts reported over the past ten years. For water splitting, these include BiVO4, Fe2O3, Cu2O and C3N4, which have attracted increasing attention. Experimental observations of the proposed charge transfer mechanism across the semiconductor/semiconductor/metal junctions and the resultant activity enhancement are discussed. In parallel, recent successes in the theoretical modelling of semiconductor electronic structures at interfaces and how these explain the functionality of the junction structures is highlighted.

Visible-light driven heterojunction photocatalysts for water splitting – a critical review

Large amounts of anthropogenic CO2 emissions associated with increased fossil fuel consumption have led to global warming and an energy crisis. The photocatalytic reduction of CO2 into solar fuels such as methane or methanol is believed to be one of the best methods to address these two problems. In addition to light harvesting and charge separation, the adsorption/activation and reduction of CO2 on the surface of heterogeneous catalysts remain a scientifically critical challenge, which greatly limits the overall photoconversion efficiency and selectivity of CO2 reduction. This review describes recent advances in the fundamental understanding of CO2 photoreduction on the surface of heterogeneous catalysts and particularly provides an overview of enhancing the adsorption/activation of CO2 molecules. The reaction mechanism and pathways of CO2 reduction as well as their dependent factors are also analyzed and discussed, which is expected to enable an increase in the overall efficiency of CO2 reduction through minimizing the reaction barriers and controlling the selectivity towards the desired products. The challenges and perspectives of CO2 photoreduction over heterogeneous catalysts are presented as well.

CO2 photo-reduction: insights into CO2 activation and reaction on surfaces of photocatalysts

Surface reaction kinetics and bulk charge separation are both critical to the efficiency of solar water splitting. In addition to the well-documented surface catalytic effect, the promotion of bulk charge separation upon loading of cocatalysts has rarely been reported. This paper describes the synergetic enhancement of surface reaction kinetics and bulk charge separation by introducing discrete nanoisland p-type Co3O4 cocatalysts onto n-type BiVO4, forming a p–n Co3O4/BiVO4 heterojunction with an internal electric field to facilitate charge transport. Being highly dispersed on the surface of photoanodes, the nanoisland cocatalysts could suppress the formation of recombination centers at the photoanode/cocatalyst interface. This cocatalyst-loading method achieved a charge separation efficiency of up to 77% in the bulk and 47% on the surface of catalysts. An AM 1.5G photocurrent of 2.71 mA/cm2 at 1.23 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode for water oxidation was obtained, which is the highest photocurr...

Enhanced Surface Reaction Kinetics and Charge Separation of p-n Heterojunction Co3O4/BiVO4 Photoanodes.

Titanium dioxide is a promising photocatalyst for water splitting, but it suffers from low visible light activity due to its wide band gap Doping can narrow the band gap of titanium dioxide; however, new charge-carrier recombination centres may be introduced Here we report the design of sub-10 nm rutile titanium dioxide nanoparticles, with an increased amount of surface/sub-surface defects to overcome the negative effects from bulk defects Abundant defects can not only shift the top of the valence band of rutile titanium dioxide upwards for band-gap narrowing but also promote charge-carrier separation The role of titanium(III) is to enhance, rather than initiate, the visible-light-driven water splitting The sub-10 nm rutile nanoparticles exhibit the state-of-the-art activity among titanium dioxide-based semiconductors for visible-light-driven water splitting and the concept of ultra-small nanoparticles with abundant defects may be extended to the design of other robust semiconductor photocatalysts

Sub-10 nm rutile titanium dioxide nanoparticles for efficient visible-light-driven photocatalytic hydrogen production

Substoichiometric tungsten oxide single-crystal nanosheets are successfully prepared via the exfoliation of layered tungstic acid and subsequent introduction of oxygen vacancies. The combination of different strategies, i.e., 2D-structure construction, the introduction of surface oxygen vacancies, and the creation of localized surface plasmon resonance can promote the light-harvesting performance of tungsten oxide through accumulative and synergistic effects.

Tungsten Oxide Single Crystal Nanosheets for Enhanced Multichannel Solar Light Harvesting

H2 generation by solar water splitting is one of the most promising solutions to meet the increasing energy demands of the fast developing society. However, the efficiency of solar-water-splitting systems is still too low for practical applications, which requires further enhancement via different strategies such as doping, construction of heterojunctions, morphology control, and optimization of the crystal structure. Recently, integration of plasmonic metals to semiconductor photocatalysts has been proved to be an effective way to improve their photocatalytic activities. Thus, in-depth understanding of the enhancement mechanisms is of great importance for better utilization of the plasmonic effect. This review describes the relevant mechanisms from three aspects, including: i) light absorption and scattering; ii) hot-electron injection and iii) plasmon-induced resonance energy transfer (PIRET). Perspectives are also proposed to trigger further innovative thinking on plasmonic-enhanced solar water splitting.
