Abstract Photocatalysis is a promising and convenient strategy to convert solar energy into chemical for various fields. However, photocatalysis still suffers from low conversion efficiency. Developing state of the art photocatalysts with high efficiency cost huge challenge. Transition metal nitrides (TMNs) as class metallic interstitial compounds have attracted significant attention in photocatalytic applications. In fact, TMNs exhibit multifunctional properties systems. This review first...
