Tetrahexagonal AlN: a novel two-dimensional family for photocatalytic water splitting with exceptional mechanical, electronic, and optical properties.
Hydrogen generation based on photocatalytic water splitting is a promising strategy for renewable energy production.
Two-dimensional (2D) photocatalysts with excellent light absorption and favorable band alignment are critical for highly-efficient water splitting.
Metal oxyhalides have been broadly studied recently due to their hierarchical structures and promising functionalities. Herein, a thorough study of newly modeled monolayers ScXY (X = S, Se; Y =...
