Abstract

Abstract : Controllable local electronic migration induced charge separation and red-shift emission endow carbon nitride materials with enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production and potential phototherapy by labeling cell membranes. Abstract : Electronic migration can be tailored by carefully manipulating the local electron donating and withdrawing nature of carbon nitride for charge separation and red-shift emission. A high yield of H2 (5 mmol h −1 g −1 ) with an apparent quantum yield of 20.98% at 420 nm and a preliminary study on phototherapy by labeling cell membranes are simultaneously provided.
