Abstract

Introduction

gC3N4/C

Method

resulting in the formation of a greater number of reactive sites.

Results

The type-Z heterojunction formed between the CuOQDs and g-C3N4/C reduced the energy required for electron transition, thereby facilitating the separation of photo-generated electron-hole pairs. The highest photocatalytic degradation efficiency of g-C3N4/C for (TC) was 65.1%, which was 3.3 times that of pure g-C3N4.

Conclusion

In the photocatalytic process, the main reactive species is O2−. The g-C3N4/C synthesized by stem induction in multi-phase heterojunction form has a stable microstructure to improve the charge separation efficiency. Further, it represents practical photocatalytic environmental protection.
