Simple defect engineering of carbon nitride using mixed precursors for enhanced photocatalysis

Abstract
Remarkable improvements in the morphological and photophysical properties of the carbon nitride (CN) photocatalyst are achieved by simply mixing two different precursors, which partially terminates the co-polymerization of heptazine units and induces a defective structure. This defective CN is rich in mesopores, offering abundant reaction sites and exhibiting enhanced photoconductivity.
