Abstract

AbstractPhotonic crystal fluorine‐doped tin oxide (PC‐FTO) films are fabricated on FTO glass to supply an available surface area to embed a photoactive material, and also improve the overall photon–electron conversion efficiency under illumination with light of a specific incident range. The nanoscale g‐C3N4 photocatalyst is synthesized directly inside the PC‐FTO film from a liquid precursor, without the addition of any surface reagent or noble metal particles. The photonic stop band (PSB) of the PC‐FTO is studied by diffuse‐reflectance UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy (DRUVS) under conditions of a different incidence angle of the light. Photoelectrochemistry (PEC) is used to demonstrate the influence of the PSB on the photocatalytic performance of g‐C3N4@PC‐FTO.
