“…Here, highly loaded Co 2+ single atoms act as OER cocatalysts with a staggering number of active sites compared to other cobalt nanoclusters, promoting OWS. [ 82 ] In a separate study, Cu atoms were observed to intercalate within the C 3 N 4 layers in SS‐CN ( Figure ). This led to the identification of two distinct Cu–Nx interaction groups.…”

Fast production of hydrogen and oxygen in large amounts at an economic rate is the need of the hour to cater to the needs of the most awaited hydrogen energy, a futuristic renewable energy solution. Production of hydrogen through a simple water splitting through visible light photocatalytic approach using sunlight is considered as one of the most promising and sustainable approaches for generating clean fuels. For this purpose, a variety of catalytic techniques and novel catalysts are being investigated. Among these catalysts, carbon nitride is presently deemed as one of the best candidates for the visible light photocatalysis due to its unique molecular structure and adequate visible‐range band gap. Its band gap can further be engineered by structural and morphological manipulation or by, doping/hybridization. Among numerous synthetic approaches for carbon nitrides, supramolecular self‐assembly is one of the recently developed elegant bottom‐up strategies as it is bio‐inspired and provides a facile and eco‐friendly route to synthesise high surface area carbon nitride with superior morphological features and other semiconducting and catalytic properties. The current review article broadly covers supramolecular self‐assembly synthesis of carbon nitride nanostructures and their photocatalytic water splitting application and provides a comprehensive outlook on the future directions.This article is protected by copyright.
