Irrespective of the initial states, the pure Cu(i) surface of Cu2O would in situ transform into a stable Cu(i)–Cu(ii) composite surface during the first catalytic run of CO oxidation, resulting in dramatic activity enhancement.

Abstract Like most of the recent reported semiconductor photocatalysts, the sluggish dynamic charges transfer and separation caused by weak driving force still restricts the further improvement of photocatalytic performance in crystalline carbon nitride (CCN). Here, we successfully prepared a series of heptazine-based K+ implanted CCN (KCN) for the first time, where the K+ ions concentration was gradiently inserted through controlling its diffusion from the surface to bulk in carbon nitride (CN). As a powerful driving force, the built-in electric field (BIEF) induced by this concentration gradient, greatly accelerates the drift movement and the transport from bulk to the surface, as well as the separation of photogenerated carriers. Consequently, the KCN with optimized BIEF displays a ~34 times promotion than original CN for visible-light H2 evolution. Such a high activity enhancement factor is at a relatively good level in reported CCN. Our proposed strategy to induce BIEF production by constructing concentration gradients through thermodynamically feasible diffusion controlled solid-state reaction, can be adopted to build other efficient photocatalytic systems.
