Tetrahexagonal AlN: a novel two-dimensional family for photocatalytic water splitting with exceptional mechanical, electronic, and optical properties.
A metal-free type-II h-BN/C2N heterostructure is shown as a potential visible light water-splitting photocatalyst.
The type-II CdO/CdS heterostructure is a promising visible light water-splitting photocatalyst.
A new mechanism for light-driven water splitting is described, which decreases the reaction's complexity and offers a new way to extend the range of usable wavelengths far into the visible region.
