Description
Summary:Doping is widely reported as an efficient strategy to enhance the performance of graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN). In the study of element-doped g-CN, the characterization of doped elements is an indispensable requirement, as well as a huge challenge. In this review, we summarize some useful characterization methods which can confirm the existence and chemical states of doped elements. The advantages and shortcomings of these characterization methods are discussed in detail. Various applications of element-doped g-CN and the function of doped elements are also introduced. Overall, this review article aims to provide helpful information for the research of element-doped g-CN. The confirmation methods of the doped elements in element-doped graphitic carbon nitride materials are discussed in this review. The applications of element-doped graphitic carbon nitride materials are also summarized.
