Abstract
Abstract Solar‐driven synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) through photocatalysis stands out as a promising avenue for sustainable energy generation, marked by environmental friendliness and industrial feasibility. However, the inherent limitations of carbon nitride (CN) in photocatalytic H 2 O 2 production significantly impede their performance. Herein, a novel 0D/2D carbon dots‐modified CN nanosheet heterojunction (CDsMCN) is introduced, synthesized through a hydrothermal‐calcination tandem strategy induced by CDs derived from melamine. This innovative technique enhances the n→π* electronic transition in CDsMCN, accelerating the separation efficiency of electron‐hole pairs, boosting oxygen adsorption,…
