Abstract
The unique characteristics and diverse applications of 2D transition metal phosphides have aroused significant interest. In this paper, we successfully prepared 2D NiCoP modified ZnCdS composite. The NiCoP nanosheets were successfully obtained by phosphating layered double hydroxide (LDH) precursor. The results show that the ZnCdS-8%NiCoP has the highest photocatalytic performance among all the composite photocatalysts with the H2 evolution rate of 1370.1 µmol h-1, which is 17.9 folds higher than obtained with pure ZnCdS. Detailed analysis reveal that NiCoP nanosheets functions as an excellent electron acceptor, speeding up the directed migration of electrons. Furthermore, the rational mechanism of photocatalytic has been presented based on density function theory (DFT) calculations, which is well congruent with experimental results. Our research offers a simple, environmentally benign, and scalable technique for making highly effective photocatalysts, as well as a novel perspective on transition metal phosphides rational design.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalysis for water splitting is harvested as a fascinating way for addressing the global energy crisis. At present, numerous research subjects have been achieved to design and develop g-C3N4 photocatalysis, and the photocatalytic system still suffers from low efficiency that is far from practical applications. Here, there is an inspiring review on the latest progress of the doping strategies to modify g-C3N4 for enhancing the efficiency of photocatalytic water splitting, including non-metal doping, metal doping, and molecular doping. Finally, the review concludes a summary and highlights some perspectives on the challenges and future research of g-C3N4 photocatalysts.
