Sakhraoui T. Effect of vacancy defect and strain on the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of carbon nitride 2D monolayers by DFTB method. JOURNAL OF PHYSICS.

Abstract
We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of CnNm(C6N6, C2N, C3N and C3N4) using density functional tight-binding (DFTB) method. We find that these compounds are dynamically stable and their electronic band gaps are in the range of 0.59-3.28 eV. We show that the electronic structure is modulated by strain and the semiconducting behavior is well preserved except for C3N at +5% biaxial strain, where a transition from semiconductor to metal was observed. Under +3% biaxial strain, C3N4undergoes a transition from an indirect (K-Γ) to a direct (Γ-Γ) band gap. Moreover, band gap of C2N transforms from direct (Γ-Γ) to indirect (M-Γ) under +4% biaxial strain. However, no change in the nature of the band gap of C6N6. Further, when the studied materials under uniaxial tensile strain, their bandgaps reduce. Our theoretical study showed that an indirect-to-direct nature transition may occur for C6N6and for C3N4, which broadens their applications. On the other hand, magnetism is observed in all N-vacancy defected CnNm, which encourages its application in spintronic. Moreover, calculations of formation energies indicate that N-vacancy is energetically more favorable than C-vacancy in both C2N and C3N4. Opposite behavior found for C6N6and C3N.

Abstract
A type-II van der Waals heterojunction photocatalyst is not only an ideal material for hydrogen production by water splitting, but also an important way to improve efficiency and produce low-cost clean energy. In this work, we unexpectedly found that monolayers of AlN and C2N, g-C3N4, and C6N8 all formed type-II heterojunctions according to density functional theory, and we report a comparison of their photocatalytic performance. Among them, the AlN/C2N heterojunction has an appropriate band gap value of 1.61 eV for visible light water splitting. It has higher carrier mobility than the AlN/g-C3N4 heterojunction (electron 253.1 cm2 V-1 s-1 > 31.6 cm2 V-1 s-1 and hole 11043.4 cm2 V-1 s-1 > 524.7 cm2 V-1 s-1), and an absorption peak similar those of monolayer C2N in visible light (8 × 104 cm-1) and monolayer AlN in ultraviolet light (11 × 104 cm-1). The Bader charge shows that the charge transfer number of the AlN/g-C3N4 heterojunction is higher than that of the AlN/C2N heterojunction, and its Gibbs free energy (-0.22 eV) is smaller than that of single-layer g-C3N4 (-0.30 eV). The AlN/C6N8 heterojunction also has a perfect band gap of 2.16 eV and an absorption peak of over 10 × 104 cm-1 in the UV region. Since a type-II heterojunction can effectively promote the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and prevent their rapid recombination, the above heterojunctions are promising candidates for new photocatalysts.

Abstract
Assembling different 2D nanomaterials into heterostructures with strong interfacial interactions presents a promising approach for novel artificial photocatalytic materials. Chemically implementing the 2D nanomaterials' construction/stacking modes to regulate different interfaces can extend their functionalities and achieve good performance. Herein, based on different fundamental principles and photochemical processes, multiple construction modes (e.g., face-to-face, edge-to-face, interface-to-face, edge-to-edge) are overviewed systematically with emphasis on the relationships between their interfacial characteristics (e.g., point, linear, planar), synthetic strategies (e.g., in situ growth, ex situ assembly), and enhanced applications to achieve precise regulation. Meanwhile, recent efforts for enhancing photocatalytic performances of 2D/2D heterostructures are summarized from the critical factors of enhancing visible light absorption, accelerating charge transfer/separation, and introducing novel active sites. Notably, the crucial roles of surface defects, cocatalysts, and surface modification for photocatalytic performance optimization of 2D/2D heterostructures are also discussed based on the synergistic effect of optimization engineering and heterogeneous interfaces. Finally, perspectives and challenges are proposed to emphasize future opportunities for expanding 2D/2D heterostructures for photocatalysis.

Abstract
In this study, carbonized silicon carbide/graphitic carbon nitride ((SiC/C)/g-C3N4) composites were fabricated via a facile calcination method. The optimal SiC/C/g-C3N4composite shows an excellent visible-light photocatalytic activity for water splitting, with the highest hydrogen evolution amount being 200.2μmol, which is four times higher than that of pure g-C3N4when triethanolamine and platinum (1.0 wt%) are used as the sacrificial agent and cocatalyst, respectively. With an intimate interface between SiC/C and g-C3N4, the energy band structure of g-C3N4was well engineered for photocatalytic H2production. This study provides a novel method for fabricating g-C3N4-based heterojunctions for application in environmental conservation.

Abstract
Very recently, an important two-dimensional material, MoSi2N4, was successfully synthesized. However, pure MoSi2N4 has some inherent shortcomings when used in photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen, especially a low separation rate of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and a poor visible light response. Interestingly, we find that the MoSi2N4 can be used as a good modification material, and it can be coupled with C2N to form an efficient heterojunction photocatalyst. Here, using density functional theory, a type-II heterojunction, C2N/MoSi2N4, is designed and systematically studied. Based on AIMD simulations and phonon dispersion verification, C2N/MoSi2N4 shows sufficient thermodynamic stability. As well as its perfect interface electronic properties, its large interlayer charge transfer and good visible light response lay the foundation for its excellent photocatalytic performance. In addition, the oxidation and reduction potentials of the C2N/MoSi2N4 heterojunction not only can meet the requirements of water splitting well but can also maintain a delicate balance between oxidation and reduction reactions. More importantly, the |ΔGH*| value of the C2N/MoSi2N4 heterojunction is very close to zero, indicating great application potential in the field of photocatalytic water splitting. In brief, our research paves the way for the design of future MoSi2N4-based efficient heterojunction photocatalysts.

Abstract
Searching for economical low-dimensional materials to construct the highly efficient type-II heterojunction photocatalysts for splitting water into hydrogen is very strategic. In this study, using the first-principles calculations, we construct a novel SiH/CeO2(111) type-II heterojunction with a very small lattice mismatch of less than 1%. Based on AIMD simulation and phonon dispersion calculations, the SiH/CeO2(111) heterojunction reveals sufficient stability, and is easy to synthesize. Due to the vdW interaction between SiH and CeO2(111) components, electron and hole accumulation regions form at the heterojunction interface, which is very conducive to the separation of photoexcited electron-hole pairs. Besides, the SiH/CeO2(111) heterojunction has good visible light response, and even a strong absorption peak of up to 8.7 × 105 cm-1 in the high-energy visible region. More importantly, the SiH/CeO2(111) heterojunction exhibits good OER and HER performance because its oxidation and reduction potentials well meet the requirements of water splitting. Consequently, SiH/CeO2(111) is a potential photocatalyst for splitting water to hydrogen.

Abstract
The electronic structures of two dimensional (2D) CdS/ZnO heterostructure (CdZnHT) consisting of CdS singlelayer (SL) and ZnO SL are explored based on hybrid density functional calculation. The negative interface formation energies suggest the formation of CdZnHT is exothermic. The bandgap of CdZnHT is favorable for absorbing visible light, and the decent band edge position makes it thermodynamically feasible for spontaneous generation of oxygen and hydrogen. The formed electric field across the interface induced by charge transfer will reduce photogenerated carrier recombination and promote carrier migration. Particularly, CdZnHT is a type-II heterostructure. Oxygen generation takes place at ZnO layer and hydrogen production occurs at CdS layer, which will also promote the effective separation and migration of phogogenerated carriers and enhance photocatalytic performance. These findings suggest that 2D CdZnHTs are possible candidates as water-splitting photocatalysts.

Abstract
Interface engineering by integrating various two-dimensional materials to form heterostructures can not only preserve the desired properties of individual components, but also induce new functions. Herein, by means of density functional theory (DFT) computations, we have investigated the effects of interface engineering of the graphene substrate on the electronic structures of monolayer triphosphides MP3 (M = Sn and Ge) and their catalytic performance for the electroreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2ER). Our results revealed that the MP3/graphene interfaces exhibit good structural stability, enhanced electrical conductivity, superior CO2ER performance, and obvious suppressing effects on hydrogen evolution due to the charge transfer at the interface. Thus, our results suggested that SnP3/graphene and GeP3/graphene heterostructures can be utilized as promising CO2ER catalysts with high-efficiency and high-selectivity, offering cost-effective opportunities to convert CO2 for renewable energy supply via interface engineering.
