The N-deficient porous g-C3N4 with broadband
white light emission was constructed by supramolecular copolymerization
design, which combined organic copolymers cyanuric acid and 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine
with melamine upon the mixture gas environment of (95%)N2/(5%)H2. Herein, we achieved great breakthrough in narrowing
the band gap of g-C3N4 from 2.64 to 1.39 eV.
Furthermore, in contrast to pristine g-C3N4,
we demonstrated that the emission wavelengths of N-deficient porous
g-C3N4 can be tuned from narrow blue to broadband
white range, where the optimal white light coordinate position is
(0.297, 0.345). The prepared N-deficient porous g-C3N4 overcomes the limitation of the narrow adjusting range of
optical properties while using conventional g-C3N4 and makes it more promising for applications in solid-state displays.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
