Porous g-C3N4 with defects for the efficient dye photodegradation under visible light

Porous graphitic carbon nitride (p-C3N4) was fabricated via simple pyrolyzing treatment of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). The defects could be introduced into the structure of g-C3N4 by breakage of some bonds, which was beneficial for the generation of electron–hole pairs and inhibiting their re...
