TL;DR: The mesoporous carbon nitride shows improved photoactivity and is promising as a host semiconductor scaffold for the design of hybrid visible-light-sensitive catalysts, as it enables the coassembly of chromophoric antenna molecules, water-reduction catalysts (here exemplified by Pt), and/or water-oxidation complexes into the host matrix, thus generating a new type of biomimetic photocatalyst system for water splitting chemistry but also for selective organic synthesis as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, photoactive condensed carbon nitride nanorods (CNRs) can be obtained via confined thermal condensation of cyanamide inside the nanochannels of an anodic alumni oxide (AAO) membrane template.

TL;DR: The progress that has been made in the synthesis of CCNs and their application in photocatalytic water splitting reactions is summarized and three kinds ofCCNs are mainly discussed according to their polymeric subunits.

TL;DR: Flexible mesoporous g-C3N4 nanorods with open channels, synthesized via nanocasting, can act as catalyst support, solid stabilizer and photosensitizer simultaneously for anchoring uniform metal nanoparticles with high compatibility with the composition, the synthetic method and the particle size.

TL;DR: In this paper, a CO 2 photoreduction system was established by employing CdS semiconductor and Co-ZIF-9 to act as a catalyst and a cocatalyst, respectively.
