W–N Bonds Precisely Boost Z-Scheme Interfacial Charge Transfer in g-C₃N₄/WO₃ Heterojunctions for Enhanced Photocatalytic H₂ Evolution

ACS Catalysis, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 12(16), С. 9994 - 10003

Опубликована: Авг. 2, 2022

Exploring and achieving precise electron-transfer channels in the interface of Z-scheme heterojunctions are essential have been considered as immense challenges. A strategy to precisely connect valence band (VB) site g-C3N4 (CN) with conduction (CB) WO3 through tungsten–nitrogen (W–N) bond was developed create a chemically bonded heterojunction photocatalyst. Because this reason, photogenerated electrons from CB could be accurately directly injected into VB CN, following direct charge separation pathways. The photocatalytic hydrogen production rate optimal CNWB 482 μmol h–1, 4.3 times higher than that CN/WO3 without an N–W (CNWU). also shows better evolution activity previous systems. Theoretical experimental results further confirm newly formed bonds become metallic, which act atomic-level interfacial accelerate electron transfer shorten distance, thus substantially boosting H2 generation. This work paves way design synthesize atomic precision for interesting applications future.

Engineering a Copper Single‐Atom Electron Bridge to Achieve Efficient Photocatalytic CO₂ Conversion

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(13)

Опубликована: Фев. 7, 2023

Developing highly efficient and stable photocatalysts for the CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR) remains a great challenge. We designed Z-Scheme photocatalyst with N-Cu1 -S single-atom electron bridge (denoted as Cu-SAEB), which was used to mediate RR. The production of CO O2 over Cu-SAEB is high 236.0 120.1 μmol g-1 h-1 in absence sacrificial agents, respectively, outperforming most previously reported photocatalysts. Notably, as-designed throughout 30 cycles, totaling 300 h, owing strengthened contact interface Cu-SAEB, mediated by atomic structure. Experimental theoretical calculations indicated that SAEB greatly promoted Z-scheme interfacial charge-transport process, thus leading enhancement photocatalytic RR Cu-SAEB. This work represents promising platform development have potential conversion applications.
