Towards rational design of carbon nitride photocatalysts: Identification of cyanamide "defects" as catalytically relevant sites

Vincent Wing-hei Lau, Igor Moudrakovski, Tiago Botari +6

The heptazine-based polymer melon (also known as graphitic carbon nitride, g-C3N4), is a promising photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution. Nonetheless, attempts to improve its inhere…
