Self-regenerated solar-driven photocatalytic water-splitting by urea derived graphitic carbon nitride with platinum nanoparticles.
A natural self-regeneration step for urea derived graphitic carbon nitride with platinum nanoparticles is found by simply opening the system to air in the dark under ambient conditions, following its solar-driven hydrogen production. The produced peroxides deactivate the graphitic carbon nitride. Release of weakly bound peroxides on the polymeric semiconductor surface is a crucial process for r...

متن کاملHighly Efficient Photocatalytic H2 Evolution from Water using Visible Light and Structure-Controlled Graphitic Carbon Nitride**
The major challenge of photocatalytic water splitting, the prototypical reaction for the direct production of hydrogen by using solar energy, is to develop low-cost yet highly efficient and stable semiconductor photocatalysts. Herein, an effective strategy for synthesizing extremely active graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) from a low-cost precursor, urea, is reported. The g-C3N4 exhibits an ext...
