Abstract
• g-C 3 N 4 /ZnO composite is fabricated via refluxing zinc salt solution containing g-C 3 N 4 . • In-situ grown ultrafine ZnO decorated on g-C 3 N 4 thin layers with well-defined interface. • Efficient charge separation and CO 2 adsorption/activation are attained in the composite. • g-C 3 N 4 /ZnO delivers an overall photoactivity and CH 4 selectivity than the g-C 3 N 4 alone. Photocatalytic CO 2 reduction to solar fuels is considered as a promising strategy to address the global warming and energy shortages. Herein, a novel method is proposed to prepare g-C 3 N 4 /ZnO nanocomposites via refluxing zinc salt methanol solution containing pre-formed g-C 3 N 4 with KOH methanol solution as precipitating agent. Some in-situ grown ultrafine ZnO nanoparticles are decorated on ultrathin g-C 3 N 4 layers with well-defined interface, which not only causes efficient charge transfer and separation, but also creates more active sites for CO 2 adsorption and activation. The resultant g-C 3 N 4 /ZnO composites demonstrate significant enhanced CO 2 photoreduction activity and selectivity for CH 4 production under visible light irradiation, and the optimal g-C 3 N 4 /ZnO composite delivers the best overall photoactivity (158.4 μmol g −1 h −1 ) with CH 4 /CO production rates of 19.8/0.37 μmol g −1 h −1 , which is 9.42 times higher than that of g-C 3 N 4 alone. This work provides an ideal synthetic strategy for g-C 3 N 4 -based hybrid materials with highly efficient CO 2 photoreduction.
