Nitrogen doped g-C3N4 with the extremely narrow band gap for excellent photocatalytic activities under visible light
Abstract
Abstract In this work, nitrogen doping g-C3N4 (NCN) with the extremely narrow band gap was prepared and applied for the photodegradation of phenols. Experiments and DFT (Density functional theory) computation identified that N-doping introduced in the g-C3N4 matrix by substituting C atoms. DFT, PL (Photoluminescence) spectra, optical property characteristic and PEC (Photoelectrochemical) indicated that NCN possess extremely narrow band gap, efficient photogenerated carrier separation and the charge transfer, which enhanced the absorption of visible light and further promote the photocatalytic activity. As a result, NCN(2:2) showed about twice higher photodegradation efficiencies and 3 times rate constant than pristine g-C3N4. Radical trapping experimental show that •O2- radical and h+ served as crucial active species during the whole photodegradation reaction. This work provided a strategy to enhance the photocatalytic activity of photocatalysts via introduce foreign atoms in matrix.

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.
