Two-dimensional optical catalysis materials have a wonderful potential application. Here, a new two-dimensional material consisting of the supported single-atom Au on a graphite carbon nitride (g-C3N[Formula: see text] single layer has been designed and its electronic and optical properties have been characterized by density functional calculations. The bandgap of 1.82[Formula: see text]eV calculated by the hybrid functional HSE06 shows that the Au/g-C3N4 is an indirect semiconductor, and the electron can easily be excited from the single-atom Au to the bottom of the conduction band. This material therefore has relatively strong optical properties in the visible region. Moreover, the process of Au insertion into the cavity of g-C3N4 single layer is energy-favorable. This work may provide insights and a new avenue for fabricating supported Au catalysts with high stability.
