Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation has attracted extensive attention in recent years. Studies have shown that catalytic materials with O, N and other defects can effectively reduce the bond energy of N[triple bond, length as m-dash]N triple bond when N is adsorbed on the defects. As an outstanding non-metallic catalyst, g-CN has been widely studied in the field of photocatalytic catalysis, and the nitrogen-defected CN shows promoted photocatalytic activity. Herein, nano-size MOF-74 particles (<20 nm) was dispersed on nitrogen-defected CN thin film (∼4 nm) a simple sol-gel method. The combination of Nano-MOF and defected film CN could effectively improve the photocatalytic activity of nitrogen fixation through Z-scheme mechanism compared with pure defected film CN.
近年来，光催化固氮引起了广泛关注。研究表明，含有O、N等缺陷的催化材料在N吸附在缺陷上时能有效降低N≡N三键的键能。作为一种优秀的非金属催化剂，g-CN在光催化领域得到了广泛研究，而氮缺陷的CN表现出增强的光催化活性。在此，通过简单的溶胶-凝胶法将纳米尺寸的MOF-74颗粒（<20 nm）分散在氮缺陷的CN薄膜（~4 nm）上。与纯缺陷薄膜CN相比，纳米MOF与缺陷薄膜CN的组合通过Z型机制能有效提高固氮的光催化活性。
