Graphitic carbon nitride: what is not talked about
Original language description
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) is used to be described as a "fascinating metal-free polymer semiconductor" that has gained considerable attention due to its tunable electronic structure, chemical stability and visible-light photocatalytic capabilities. The low-cost precursors and thermal polymerisation make g-C3N4 attractive for academic research with its declared status as a truly “green” material. However, its inherent drawbacks, such as rapidly limited specific surface area, charge recombination and low quantum yield, severely limit its effectiveness in real-world applications. Attempts to overcome these problems by doping or nanostructuring often lead to complex and unreproducible syntheses [1], raising concerns about consistency and industrial feasibility. The structural stability of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄) refers to its resistance to chemical degradation under operational conditions such as light exposure [2], moisture, or oxidative environments [3]. But does it extend to its surface? Due to the surface chemical instability, the surface can be modified though its functional groups. The surface stability/modification [3,4] and photocatalytic stability of g-C3N4 under alkaline conditions should be discussed.
