Abstract

NIR light induced H₂ evolution was realized by metal-free photocatalysis for the first time. The considerable H₂ production at 808 nm and large promotion of the photocatalytic activity in both UV-Vis and Vis regions originated from the synergistic effect on spectral and electronic coupling of g-C₃N₄ nanosheets and carbon quantum dots.
