Porous carbon nitride nanosheet was prepared by the simple oxygen etching using melamine and thiourea as precursors respectively. The porous g-C₃N₄ (TCNS) nanosheet prepared by thiourea is thinner than the porous carbon nitride (MCNS) nanosheet prepared by melamine, and the monolayer thickness is about 30 nm. Meanwhile, TCNS demonstrates an obvious layered structure and a band gap of 3.03 eV, which is higher than that of graphitic carbon nitride (2.77 eV). An enlarged band gap can give carrier stronger ability of oxidation reduction for photocatalysis. The larger specific surface area (114 m²·g^-1) can provide more active sites, and the nanosheet structure can effectively promote the separation and transfer of electrons and holes, which makes TCNS have higher photocatalytic activity.
