Novel g-C3N4/g-C3N4 S-scheme isotype heterojunction for improved photocatalytic hydrogen generation
Abstract
Abstract Rationally designing heterostructure is a promising way to promote the charge carrier separation of intrinsic photocatalysts, thus contributes the improvement of solar to chemical energy conversion. Herein, a novel isotype heterojunction consisted of MCN and UCN, respectively derived from hydrothermally-treated melamine and urea, was synthesized. Owing to the well compatibility and matched band structure, an S-scheme charge transfer mechanism is confirmed for working on MCN/UCN isotype heterojunction, thus endowing strong redox ability, efficient charge carrier separation efficiency and prolonged lifetime. As a result, MCN/UCN exhibits improved photocatalytic water splitting activity under visible light irradiation, which displays approximately 5.5 and 1.8-fold enhancement as compared to the pure MCN and UCN, respectively. The rationally synthesized S-scheme isotype heterojunction will pave the way for developing highly efficient g-C3N4-based photocatalysts.

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.
