Abstract
Exposing the photocatalyst's highly active facets and hybridizing the photocatalyst with suitable cocatalysts in the proper spot have been recognized as strong methods for high-performance photocatalysts. Herein, Ag2NCN/TiO2-Ti3C2 composites were synthesized by applying simple calcination and physically weak interaction deposition processes to obtain an excellent photocatalyst for Rhodamine B (Rh B) degradation when exposed to visible light. The findings from the experiments reveal that the Ag2NCN/TiO2-Ti3C2400 composite exhibited an outstanding photocatalytic rate in 80 min, with the highest Rh B degradation rate (k = 0.03889 min-1), which was 16 times higher than that of pure Ag2NCN (k = 0.00235 min-1) and 2.2 times higher than that of TiO2-Ti3C2400 (k = 0.01761 min-1). The results from the following factors: (i) the powerful interfacial contact created by the in situ formation of TiO2, and the superior electrical conductivity of Ti3C2 that makes carrier separation possible; (ii) TiO2 with electron-rich (101) facets are deposited on the surface of Ag2NCN, significantly reducing charge carrier recombination by trapping photoelectrons; (iii) a Z-type heterojunction is constructed between nanosize aggregate Ti3C2-TiO2 and Ag2NCN with non-metal Ti3C2 as the solid medium, improving the transfer and separation of photogenerated charges and inhibiting the recombination of electrons and holes. Additionally, the redox ability of the composite photocatalyst is enhanced. Furthermore, the analyses of active species showed that photogenerated superoxide radicals and holes were the principal active agents inside the photodegradation of Rh B. Moreover, the composite exhibited outstanding photo-stability.

Abstract
Currently existing Fenton-like catalysts were limited in wastewater treatment owing to their potential transition-metal poisoning, narrow applicable pH range and high dependence on external energy excitation. In this work, the MgNCN/MgO nanocomposites were firstly synthesized by a facile one-pot calcination of melamine and basic magnesium carbonate, and used as novel H2O2 activator for antibiotic removal. It was found that the MgNCN/MgO composite calcined at 550°C with the mass ratio of melamine to basic magnesium carbonate at 2:1, exhibited an excellent catalytic ability to tetracycline (TC) degradation in a wide pH range of 4-10 without any external energy input. More than 90% of TC (100 mL, 50 mg/L) could be degraded within 30 min by 10 mg of the nanocomposite in the presence of 0.2 mL of 30 wt% H2O2. Based on the experimental results, it was concluded that the Mg-N coordination between MgNCN and MgO in MgNCN/MgO nanocomposites activated H2O2 to produce primary singlet oxygen (1O2) and minor hydroxyl radicals (·OH), responding for TC degradation. In addition, the degradation pathways of TC were deduced by determining the generated intermediates during the degradation process. This work provided a novel idea for designing transition-metal-free catalysts for nonradical activation of H2O2 in the absence of external energy excitation.

Abstract
Incorporation of conducting polymers (CPs) with TiO2 is considered a promising pathway toward the fabrication of highly efficient non-metal based photocatalysts. Herein, we report the fabrication of TiO2@polyaniline, TiO2@polypyrrole, and TiO2@poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) photocatalyst heterostructures via the facile wet incipient impregnation method. The mass ratios of CPs in the composites were optimized. The structure, morphology, optical and surface texture of the samples were characterized by XRD, TEM, TGA, DRS, and N2-physisorption techniques. The TiO2@2PEDOT, TiO2@2PPy, and TiO2@5PAn composites were found to exhibit the highest H2 evolution rate (HER) of 1.37, 2.09, and 3.1 mmol h-1 g-1, respectively. Compared to bare TiO2, the HER was significantly enhanced by 16, 24, and 36-fold, respectively. Photoelectrochemical measurements (CV, CA and EIS) were conducted, to evaluate the photoelectric properties of the synthesized composites and assist in understanding the photocatalytic mechanism. The deposition method plays a key-role in forming the photocatalyst/CP interface. This simple impregnation route was found to provide an excellent interface for charge transfer between composite components compared to chemisorption and in situ polymerization methods. This study sheds light on the promising effect of CP incorporation with semiconductor photocatalysts, as a cheap and efficient matrix, on photocatalytic performance.

Abstract
Silver cyanamide (Ag2NCN) is a type of functional semiconductor material with a visible-light response. Ag2NCN nanocrystals with nanorod bundle-like (RB) or straw bundle-like (SB) assemblies were successfully prepared, and it was found that the as-prepared Ag2NCN nanorod bundle (RB) samples had a narrower bandgap of 2.16 eV, which was lower than those reported. As a result, RB samples demonstrated a higher photocatalytic activity towards tetracycline (TC) degradation. The analyses of active species confirmed that both the photo-generated holes and ˙O2 - radicals of the RB sample played significant roles during the process of photocatalytic degradation of TC, and the holes were the main active species. These results indicated that effective charge separation could be achieved by adjusting the morphologies of Ag2NCN nanocrystals. This study provides a new approach to prepare Ag2NCN nanocrystals with a narrower bandgap and strong visible-light response towards antibiotic degradation.

Abstract
CuWO4 is a photoanode candidate in neutral pH, and manganese-based oxygen evolution reaction electrocatalysts are of high interest due to their low price and low toxicity. Considering the unexplored chemistry of transition-metal carbodiimides/cyanamides for the PEC water oxidation, we investigated MnNCN as an electrocatalyst for CuWO4 under AM 1.5G illumination in potassium phosphate electrolyte (pH 7). Surface functionalization of CuWO4 photoanodes with MnNCN increased the photocurrent from 22 to 30 μA cm-2 at 1.23 V vs RHE. Complementary structural analysis by means of XRD and XPS revealed that MnNCN forms a core-shell structure MnNCN@MnPO x in phosphate electrolyte and mimics a manganese phosphate electrocatalyst. As such, the surface chemistry of MnNCN significantly differs from previous studies on the cobalt analogue (CoNCN). A separately prepared MnNCN electrode developed a small but detectable photocurrent due to photogenerated holes inside the semiconducting carbodiimide core of the MnNCN@MnPO x structure.
