Efficient Visible Light Active Photocatalyst: Magnesium Oxide-Doped Graphitic Carbon Nitride for the Knoevenagel Condensation Reaction

“…Despite its advantageous properties, g-C 3 N 4 suffers from certain limitations such as limited visible light absorption and low charge carrier mobility, which can hinder its photocatalytic efficiency. To address these challenges and improve the photocatalytic performance of g-C 3 N 4 , researchers have investigated different approaches, such as incorporating metal or metal oxide nanoparticles through doping. − Among these, magnesium oxide (MgO) has shown great promise as an effective dopant thanks to its wide band gap, high thermal stability, and excellent charge-transfer properties. Through the incorporation of MgO as a dopant, it becomes feasible to customize the electronic band configuration of g-C 3 N 4 .…”
