Hierarchical-metal–organic framework-templated Cu_0.5Zn_0.5In₂S₄-rGO-g-C₃N₄: flexible synthesis and enhanced photocatalytic activity

Abstract

MOF-templated sulfides exhibited abundant active sites and excellent photo/electrocatalytic activity, while the types of the sulfides derived from the single-ligand-MOF were limited due to the poor structure coordination between the...

Conductive polymer mediated earth abundant Z-scheme g-C3N4/Fe2O3 heterostructure with excellent photocatalytic activity

“…3f; the ternary heterostructure possessed much higher N 2 uptake and specific surface area (S BET ) than that of g-C 3 N 4 , which was favorable to the improvement of the photocatalytic activity. 16,[37][38][39] The photocatalytic hydrogen production activities of g-C 3 N 4 and its heterostructures were tested under visible light irradiation and systematically compared in Fig. 5 to reveal the important synergistic effect of PPy and Fe 2 O 3 .…”

“…7,12,13 However, problems such as high interfacial resistance and hydrogen evolution reaction overpotential of g-C 3 N 4 deteriorate the separation, transport and utilization efficiency of photo-exited charge carriers. 7,[12][13][14][15][16] To improve the transport and utilization efficiency, cocatalysts with low overpotential for the hydrogen and/or oxygen evolution reaction (HER, OER) overpotential and suitable band structure were adopted. 7,17 Consequently, many cocatalysts (Pt, MoS 2 , transition metals and their compounds) have been introduced as the cocatalysts of g-C 3 N 4 for facilitating its photocatalytic hydrogen production efficency.…”

Engineering dual charge transfer material modified ZnxCd1−xS towards highly effective photocatalytic pure water splitting

“…31,[33][34][35][36] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), porous polymers with high specific surface area and adjustable pores, can provide a potential platform for the rational design of efficient charge transfer materials. [37][38][39][40][41] Among them, the MOF-derived carbon materials with high conductivity and low reduction potential could be used as effective electron acceptors to improve the separation efficiency of electron-hole pairs. [42][43][44][45][46] For example, in situ encapsulation of Co nanoparticles in N-doped porous carbon (Co@NC) can form more effective active sites to enhance catalytic reactions.…”

Oxidative Photopolymerization of 3,4‐Ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) via Graphitic Carbon Nitride: A Modular Toolbox for Attaining PEDOT**

“…For instance, Kui Li et al. recently reported a graphitic carbon nitride integrated multicomponent nano‐composite via dual ligand adopted hierarchical‐MOFs which shows enhanced H 2 generation in water [24] . Furthermore, the integration of g‐CN into polymer systems is expanding [25] .…”
