Ultralong Nanostructured Carbon Nitride Wires and Self-Standing C-Rich Filters from Supramolecular Microspheres

摘要: The rational design of ultralong carbon nitride nanostructures is highly attractive due to their high aspect ratio alongside surface-to-bulk ratio, which make them suitable candidates for various applications such as photocatalysts, water treatment, and sensors. However, the synthesis ultralong, continuous wires challenging. Here we report 4 cm long large lateral size by utilizing unique supramolecular spheres composed graphitic (g-CN) monomers reactants. In situ scanning electron microscopy studies reveal that upon calcination g-CN spontaneously start grow from spheres, while remaining assembly acts a substrate creates self-standing carbon-rich porous films. different morphology, chemical composition, electronic properties allow utilization both photocatalyst cleaning materials. exhibit excellent photoactivity hydrogen production whereas film can be efficiently used applications. reported work opens opportunities tailored use multifunctional materials photocatalysis, sensing, other energy-related
