Abstract

As an emergent 2D material, graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) has attracted much attention, featuring many photochemical applications and showing several advantages (e.g., low cost, earth-abundance, and stability) over rare metals. Although most studies focus on the photoelectrochemical and photocatalytic applications of g-CN, its unique photophysical properties can also be exploited in optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, photovoltaics, and solar batteries. This review presents the background of g-CN, emphasizes the excitonic influence on its optical properties, discusses the recent advances in g-CN-based optoelectronics, and examines the challenges of high-end applications, highlighting the new directions of g-CN research and the related prospects.
