Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) is a unique organic semiconductor that has been widely applied as a visible-light-driven photocatalyst. However, these applications are primarily based on g-CN powders. Applications of g-CN in devices are hindered because of difficulties associated with the synthesis of high-quality g-CN films. This work reviews the latest advances in g-CN films. The deposition methods are summarized and the structural, optical, and electronic properties of g-CN films and their applications in catalysis, solar cells, and light-emitting diodes are outlined. Moreover, the challenges remaining in this field are also discussed.
