Metal-Free Single Atom Catalyst for N2 Fixation Driven by Visible Light.
TL;DR: In this article, a metal-free photocatalyst for solar-driven nitrogen reduction was proposed by using extensive first-principles calculations, which showed that gas phase N2 can be efficiently reduced into ammonia using B/g-C3N4 through the enzymatic mechanism with a record low onset potential (0.20 V).
