Abstract
Seeking efficient visible-light-driven photocatalysts for water splitting to produce H2 has attracted much attention. Chemical doping is an effective strategy to enhance photocatalytic performance. Herein, we reported phosphorus-doped covalent triazine-based frameworks (CTFs) for photocatalytic H2 evolution. Phosphorus-doped CTFs were fabricated by a facile thermal treatment using easily available red phosphorus as the external phosphorus species. The introduction of phosphorus atoms into the frameworks modified the optical and electronic property of CTFs, thus promoting the generation, separation, and migration of photoinduced electron-hole pairs. Consequently, the photocatalytic H2-production efficiency of phosphorus-doped CTFs was greatly improved, which was 4.5, 3.9, and 1.8 times as high as that of undoped CTFs and phosphorus-doped g-C3N4 calcined from melamine and urea, respectively.
