Hybrid 0D–2D black phosphorus quantum dots–graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets for efficient hydrogen evolution

As an emerging post-graphene two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterial, black phosphorus (BP) is attracting a great deal of current attention for the direct conversion of solar energy into solar fuels on account of its unique tunable direct-bandgap and high charge-carrier mobility. Herein, for the first time, we immobilize BP quantum dots (BPQDs) onto graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheets to create a 0D-2D inorganic-organic hybrid via a...
