Selective Breaking of Hydrogen Bonds of Layered Carbon Nitride for Visible Light Photocatalysis
Abstract
Selective breaking of the hydrogen bonds of graphitic carbon nitride can introduce favorable features, including increased band tails close to the band edges and the creation of abundant pores. These features can simultaneously improve the three basic processes of photocatalysis. As a consequence, the photocatalytic hydrogen-generation activity of carbon nitride under visible light is drastically increased by tens of times.

The XRD patterns of CN@800 show two prominent peaks at approximately 13.0° (100) and 27.4° (002), linked to hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals forces in graphitic carbon nitride.
“In these patterns, two prominent peaks at approximately 13.0° (100) and 27.4° (002) can be linked to the hydrogen bonds that preserve the long-range atomic order within layers and the Van der Waals forces that regulate interlayer periodic stacking along the c-axis in graphitic carbon nitride, respectively [25].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
