Abstract

O-doped g-C₃N₄ was synthesized for the first time by a facile H₂O₂ hydrothermal approach. The O-doping in the g-C₃N₄ lattice could induce intrinsic electronic and band structure modulation, resulting in its absorbance edge up to 498 nm and enhanced visible-light photoactivity, consequently.
