Recent Progress in Doped g-C(3)N(4) Photocatalyst for Solar Water Splitting: A Review

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C(3)N(4)) photocatalysis for water splitting is harvested as a fascinating way for addressing the global energy crisis. At present, numerous research subjects have been achieved to design and develop g-C(3)N(4) photocatalysis, and the photocatalytic system still suffers from low efficiency that is far from practical applications. Here, there is an inspiring review on the latest progress of the doping strategies to modify g-C(3)N(4) for enhancing the efficiency of photocatalytic water splitting, including non-metal doping, metal doping, and molecular doping. Finally, the review concludes a summary and highlights some perspectives on the challenges and future research of g-C(3)N(4) photocatalysts.
