Counteracting Blueshift Optical Absorption and Maximizing Photon Harvest in Carbon Nitride Nanosheet Photocatalyst 下载免费PDF全文
Mohammad Rahman Kenneth Davey Shi‐Zhang Qiao 《Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)》2017,13(23)
Blueshift of optical absorption and corresponding widening of the bandgap is a fundamental problem with 2D carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNS). An additional problem is low quantum yields (<9%) due to higher loss of absorbed photons. These problems impose a significant restriction to photocatalytic performance of CNNS. Therefore, the synthesis of narrow bandgap CNNS with high quantum efficiency is of pressing research importance. This contribution reports melem‐derived narrow bandgap CNNS with a record‐low bandgap of 2.45 eV. The narrowing in bandgap comes with improved optical absorption and use of visible‐light photons together with excellent charge transport dynamics. This is demonstrated by a record high hydrogen evolution rate of 863 µmol h?1 with apparent quantum efficiency of 16% at 420 nm. 相似文献

Polyaniline/Carbon Nitride Nanosheets Composite Hydrogel: A Separation‐Free and High‐Efficient Photocatalyst with 3D Hierarchical Structure 下载免费PDF全文

A polyaniline (PANI)/carbon nitride nanosheets (CNNS) composite hydrogel with 3D hierarchical nanostructure is synthesized via in situ polymerization. The 3D hierarchical structure is robust and stable, making the composite hydrogel separation‐free and easy to recycling. It is highly excellent in removing organic pollutant for PANI/CNNS composite hydrogel on account of the cooperation of adsorptive preconcentration and the following photocatalytic oxidation. Pollutants are first adsorbed and concentrated into the 3D hierarchical nanostructure of the composite hydrogel. Then the pollutants are in situ oxidized via photocatalysis. The promoted photocatalytic performance can be mainly ascribed to the outstanding interfacial charge separation and photoelectrochemical performance. A new idea of the construction of 3D hierarchical photocatalysts is presented, which can be applied in the sustainability field. 相似文献

A general method for the direct synthesis of highly homogeneous and dense polymerized carbon nitride (PCN) nanosheet films on F: SnO2 (FTO) is developed. Detailed photoelectrochemical (PEC) water-splitting studies reveal that the as-synthesized PCN films exhibit outstanding performance as photoanode for PEC water-splitting. The optimal PCN photoanode exhibits excellent photocurrent density of 650 µA cm−2, and monochromatic incident photon-to-electron conversion efficiency ( IPCE) value up to 30.55% (λ = 400 nm) and 25.97% (λ = 420 nm) at 1.23 VRHE in 0.1 m KOH electrolyte. More importantly, the PCN photoanode has an excellent hole extraction efficiency of up to 70 ± 3% due to the abundance of active sites provided by the PCN photoanode nanosheet, which promotes the transport rates of OER-relevant species. These PCN films provide a new benchmark for PCN photoanode materials. 相似文献

There is an urgent need to develop metal‐free, low cost, durable, and highly efficient catalysts for industrially important oxygen evolution reactions. Inspired by natural geodes, unique melamine nanogeodes are successfully synthesized using hydrothermal process. Sulfur‐modified graphitic carbon nitride (S‐modified g‐CN x ) electrocatalysts are obtained by annealing these melamine nanogeodes in situ with sulfur. The sulfur modification in the g‐CN x structure leads to excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity by lowering the overpotential. Compared with the previously reported nonmetallic systems and well‐established metallic catalysts, the S‐modified g‐CN x nanostructures show superior performance, requiring a lower overpotential (290 mV) to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm?2 and a Tafel slope of 120 mV dec?1 with long‐term durability of 91.2% retention for 18 h. These inexpensive, environmentally friendly, and easy‐to‐synthesize catalysts with extraordinary performance will have a high impact in the field of oxygen evolution reaction electrocatalysis. 相似文献

In this study, nanopillar arrays of silicon oxide are fabricated through a process involving very‐large‐scale integration, for use as two‐dimensional periodic relief gratings (2DPRGs) on silicon surfaces. Oligonucleotides are successively immobilized on the pillar surface, allowing the system to be used as an optical detector specific for the targeted single‐stranded DNAs (ssDNAs). The surfaces of the oligonucleotides‐modified 2DPRGs undergo insignificant structural changes, but upon hybridizing with target ssDNA, the 2DPRGs undergo dramatic changes in terms of their pillar scale. Binding of the oligonucleotides to the 2DPRG occurs in a way that allows them to retain their function and selectively bind the target ssDNA. The performance of the sensor is evaluated by capturing the target ssDNA on the 2DPRGs and measuring the effective refractive index (neff). The binding of the target ssDNA species to the 2DPRGs results in a color change from pure blue to red, observable by the naked eye along an angle of 15–20°. Moreover, effective medium theory is used to calculate the filling factors inside the 2DPRGs and, thereby, examine the values of neff during the structural changes of the 2DPRGs. Accordingly, these new films have potential applications as label‐free optical biosensors. 相似文献

Antibody‐Mimetic Peptoid Nanosheet for Label‐Free Serum‐Based Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease 下载免费PDF全文
Ling Zhu Zijian Zhao Peng Cheng Zhaohui He Zhiqiang Cheng Jiaxi Peng Huayi Wang Chen Wang Yanlian Yang Zhiyuan Hu 《Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)》2017,29(30)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia characterized by progressive cognitive decline. Current diagnosis of AD is based on symptoms, neuropsychological tests, and neuroimaging, and is usually evident years after the pathological process. Early assessment at the preclinical or prodromal stage is in a great demand since treatment after the onset can hardly stop or reverse the disease progress. However, early diagnosis of AD is challenging due to the lack of reliable noninvasive approaches. Here, an antibody‐mimetic self‐assembling peptoid nanosheet containing surface‐exposed Aβ42‐recognizing loops is constructed, and a label‐free sensor for the detection of AD serum is developed. The loop‐displaying peptoid nanosheet is demonstrated to have high affinity to serum Aβ42, and to be able to identify AD sera with high sensitivity. The dense distribution of molecular recognition loops on the robust peptoid nanosheet scaffold not only mimics the architecture of antibodies, but also reduces the nonspecific binding in detecting multicomponent samples. This antibody‐mimetic 2D material holds great potential toward the blood‐based diagnosis of AD, and meanwhile provides novel insights into the antibody alternative engineering and the universal application in biological and chemical sensors. 相似文献

Codoping of N and O in ultrathin graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4) nanosheets leads to an inner electric field. This field restrains the recombination of photogenerated carriers and, thus, enhances hydrogen evolution. The layered structure of codoped g‐C3N4 nanosheets (N‐O‐CNNS) not only provides abundant sites of contact with the reaction medium, but also decreases the distance over which the photogenerated electron–hole pairs are transported to the reaction interface. Quantum confinement in the ultrathin structure results in an increased bandgap and makes the photocatalytic reaction more favorable than bulk g‐C3N4. Under visible light irradiation, N‐O‐CNNS with 3 wt% Pt achieves a hydrogen evolution rate of 9.2 mmol g?1 h?1 and a value of 46.9 mmol g?1 h?1 under AM1.5 with 5 wt% Pt. Thus, this work paves the way for designing efficient nanostructures with increased separation/transfer efficiency of photogenerated carriers and, hence, increased photocatalytic activities. 相似文献

Achieving highly efficient hierarchical photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution is always challenging. Herein, hierarchical mesoporous NiO@N‐doped carbon microspheres (HNINC) are successfully fabricated with ultrathin nanosheet subunits as high‐performance photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution. The unique architecture of N‐doped carbon layers and hierarchical mesoporous structures from HNINC could effectively facilitate the separation and transfer of photo‐induced electron–hole pairs and afford rich active sites for photocatalytic reactions, leading to a significantly higher H2 production rate than NiO deposited with platinum. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the migration path of the photo‐generated electron transfer is from Ni 3d and O 2p hybrid states of NiO to the C 2p state of graphite, while the photo‐generated holes locate at Ni 4s and Ni 4p hybrid states of NiO, which is beneficial to improve the separation of photo‐generated electron–hole pairs. Gibbs free energy of the intermediate state for hydrogen evolution reaction is calculated to provide a fundamental understanding of the high H2 production rate of HNINC. This research sheds light on developing novel photocatalysts for efficient hydrogen evolution. 相似文献

Tri‐s‐triazine‐Based Crystalline Carbon Nitride Nanosheets for an Improved Hydrogen Evolution 下载免费PDF全文

Tri‐s‐triazine‐based crystalline carbon nitride nanosheets (CCNNSs) have been successfully extracted via a conventional and cost‐effective sonication–centrifugation process. These CCNNSs possess a highly defined and unambiguous structure with minimal thickness, large aspect ratios, homogeneous tri‐s‐triazine‐based units, and high crystallinity. These tri‐s‐triazine‐based CCNNSs show significantly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen generation activity under visible light than g‐C3N4, poly (triazine imide)/Li+ Cl–, and bulk tri‐s‐triazine‐based crystalline carbon nitrides. A highly apparent quantum efficiency of 8.57% at 420 nm for hydrogen production from aqueous methanol feedstock can be achieved from tri‐s‐triazine‐based CCNNSs, exceeding most of the reported carbon nitride nanosheets. Benefiting from the inherent structure of 2D crystals, the ultrathin tri‐s‐triazine‐based CCNNSs provide a broad range of application prospects in the fields of bioimaging, and energy storage and conversion. 相似文献

The development of efficient photocatalysts for the degradation of organic pollutants and production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an attractive two‐in‐one strategy to address environmental remediation concerns and chemical resource demands. Graphitic carbon nitride (g‐C3N4) possesses unique electronic and optical properties. However, bulk g‐C3N4 suffers from inefficient sunlight absorption and low carrier mobility. Once exfoliated, ultrathin nanosheets of g‐C3N4 attain much intriguing photocatalytic activity. Herein, a mussel‐inspired strategy is developed to yield silver‐decorated ultrathin g‐C3N4 nanosheets (Ag@U‐g‐C3N4‐NS). The optimum Ag@U‐g‐C3N4‐NS photocatalyst exhibits enhanced electrochemical properties and excellent performance for the degradation of organic pollutants. Due to the photoformed valence band holes and selective two‐electron reduction of O2 by the conduction band electrons, it also renders an efficient, economic, and green route to light‐driven H2O2 production with an initial rate of 0.75 × 10?6 m min?1. The improved photocatalytic performance is primarily attributed to the large specific surface area of the U‐g‐C3N4‐NS layer, the surface plasmon resonance effect induced by Ag nanoparticles, and the cooperative electronic capture properties between Ag and U‐g‐C3N4‐NS. Consequently, this unique photocatalyst possesses the extended absorption region, which effectively suppresses the recombination of electron–hole pairs and facilitates the transfer of electrons to participate in photocatalytic reactions. 相似文献
