Abstract

The intertwined exploring of solar water driven into chemical energy configurated by a constituted semiconductor photocatalyst under sunlight approach toward a remediation eager method that solve the environmental issues. Currently we optimized polymeric carbon nitride PCN by a sophisticated molecular co-polymerization process which diffused with a mirror organic conjugated heterocyclic monomer to maximize its photocatalytic activity. Herein, for the 1st time we report an organic π-electron stacking conjugated thiazolothiazole (TT) as a small molecule within the framework of PCN to enhance the conductive optical and photocatalytic properties of PCN under solar energy irradiation. The fusion of this bicyclic thiazolothiazole (TT) co-monomer within PCN remarkably enhanced the charge carrier motilities and giving a rigid packing due to sulfur contents. Excitingly the as-synthesized samples were processed under different liberated characterization such as XRD, FTIR, BET, SEM, TEM, XPS, PL, DRS and EPR under both regions respectively. Results reflect that the integration of thiazolothiazole (TT) in the heptazine structure of PCN alter a prodigious delocalization in its π-conjugated system and similarly demonstrating an apparent fluctuation in its surface area, electronic structure, its calculated band gap, chemical composition analysis and maximize the process of generation of electrons under solar light from ground state (HOMO) to the excited state (LUMO) of polymeric carbon nitride (PCN). Beside, this unique integrity of TT co-monomer with in PCN matrix remarkably improve the photocatalytic activity toward prosperity and the amount optimized CNU-TT12.0 demonstrated an outstanding photocatalytic activity of water reduction for H2 evolution and as well of RhB pollutant photodegradation. The sample optimized display 10.6 enhancement comparatively pure pristine sample.
