摘 要:Difficult dynamical transfer behaviors for charge carriers from generation locations to corresponding re-ductive and oxidative sites as well as subsequent their splitting H_(2)O with large reaction overpotential have not been solved yet,which seriously impedes the conversion efficiency of solar energy into H_(2)(STH).Herein,nanocage-like g-C_(3)N_(4)(C_(3)N_(4)NC)supported Ni2 P nanoparticles(Ni2 P/C_(3)N_(4)NC)have been constructed for solving the above dynamical bottleneck by synchronously regulating d-and p-band cen-ters using the strain ***-excited electrons and holes are separately propelled to reductive site(Ni2 P)and oxidative site(C_(3)N_(4)NC)within the localized electric field for∗-OH dehydrogenation and∗-O coupling in the photocatalytic H_(2)O splitting along with an STH of 2.52%at 65℃under AM 1.5 G irradi-ation,being explored by in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy,in situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Hall effect *** research explores a unique insight to boost STH over heterojunction photocatalysts by synchronously regulating their d-and p-band centers.
