- Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is a promising photocatalyst for solar energy conversion, but the rapid charge recombination of pristine g-C3N4 (CN) severely limits the photocatalytic activity. Herein, S/N co-doped porous ultrathin g-C3N4 nanosheet (MCN-NS) is synthesized to improve the charge carriers transport from bulk to surface and regulate electron-hole trapping sites. S and N dopants act as electron and hole trapping sites, respectively, creating an intrinsic donor-acceptor configuration that reduces charge recombination rate. Consequently, MCN-NS demonstrates an enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution rate of 8228 μmol h-1 g-1, which is 32.3 times higher than that of CN, with an apparent quantum yield (AQY) of 15.2% at 400 nm. Additionally, MCN-NS shows efficient CO2 to CO and CH4 conversion rates of 89.5 and 18.6 μmol h-1 g-1 , respectively, in pure water without sacrificial agents or co-catalysts. This work presents a facile and scalable approach to regulate the charge dynamics in g-C3N4 for efficient solar-to-chemical conversion.
