| Paper Title | Modulating Schottky Barriers and Active Sites of Ag-Ni bi-metallic Cluster on Mesoporous Carbon Nitride for Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution |
| Highlights |
The study successfully synthesized a novel hetero-structured g-C3N4 material with optimized Ag and Ni concentrations, enhancing its visible light absorption and catalytic active sites for hydrogen evolution reactions. By using DFT calculations and physicochemical characterizations, the study demonstrated the pivotal role of g-C3N4 in facilitating efficient charge transfer and carrier generation, leading to a superior solar light-driven photocatalytic H2 evolution rate of 2507 μmol.h-1.g−1. |
