Triggering the lattice oxygen oxidation mechanism is crucial for improving evolution reaction (OER) performance, because it could bypass scaling relation limitation associated with conventional adsorbate through direct formation of oxygen-oxygen bond. High-valence transition metal sites are favorable activating oxygen, but deep pre-catalysts suffers from a high thermodynamic barrier. Here, taking advantage Jahn-Teller (J-T) distortion induced structural instability, we incorporate high-spin Mn

As one of the best sustainable approaches for visible-light production hydrogen (H2) to meet energy demands, semiconductor-based photocatalysis has received broad interest in recent decades. The fundamental restrictions graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) as a promising metal-free photocatalytic semiconductor water splitting, like insufficient harvesting and high electron–hole (e/h) pairs recombination, have limited its applications this goal. In regard, optical, charge separation, surface features g-C3N4 can be tuned via engineering C/N vacancies, which is reviewed here splitting by g-C3N4. Reports confirm that enhanced resulting from vacancies are helpful adsorption on surface, improving water-splitting kinetics. First Review, improvements structural optical characteristics introducing especially nitrogen will discussed illustrate better performance. Then, various strategies creating controlling reviewed. critical roles optimizing performance also described, finally advances defective oxidation addressed.

Abstract In this work, nitrogen‐defective g‐C 3 N 4 with different nitrogen defect densities is synthesized for ciprofloxacin photocatalytic degradation. Compared pristine , etched NaBH 1 h exhibits an approximately ten‐fold increase in the rate constant of (CIP) The combined experimental analysis and theoretical calculations reveal that defects can be incorporated into all sites C─N═C most susceptible site. By incorporating to induce states between conduction band (CB) valence (VB), electronic structures are tuned. induced downshifted approach valance band, reaching increased density within optimum ranges accommodate excited electrons narrow bandgap, extend light absorption capability, enhance charge carrier separation transfer efficiency. by 2 over‐introduced a declined performance due deteriorated structure, over‐downshifted turn out new recombination center carriers.

Abstract Photoreforming waste plastics into valuable products is a promising approach, but it requires efficient, eco‐friendly photocatalysts and deeper understanding of catalytic mechanism. We have developed B‐doped g‐C 3 N 4 nanotube catalyst with well‐defined structure for photoreforming poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) chemicals H 2 . This achieved evolution rate 3240 μmol g catal −1 h , outperforming previous cadmium‐free catalysts. It also oxidized PET to higher‐value organic acids via hole oxidation Experimental theoretical calculations showed that B atom doping not only greatly increased the catalyst's active sites, significantly accelerated electron–hole separation transfer rate, optimized adsorption activation behavior substrate. Using concentrated sunlight, we 475 real‐world in seawater. Techno‐economic analysis suggests processing 50,000 tons plastic annually could yield profit $7.45 million.

Abstract Oxygen vacancies (OVs) are widely considered as active sites in photocatalytic reactions, yet the crucial role of OVs S‐scheme heterojunction photocatalysts requires deeper understanding. In this work, at hetero‐interface regulated BiVO 4 ‐OVs/g‐C 3 N constructed. The Fermi‐level structures and g‐C lead to a redistribution charges interface, inducing an internal electric field which tends promote recombination photogenerated carriers interface. Importantly, introduction induces defect electronic states bandgap, creating indirect energy level that serves intermediator for carrier heterojunction. As result, degradation rate on Rhodamine B (RhB) tetracyclines (TCs) optimal sample is 10.7 11.8 times higher than bare one, hydrogen production also improved 558 µmol g −1 h . This work shows importance heterostructure photocatalysis from both thermodynamic kinetic aspects may provide new insight into rational design photocatalysts.
