Abstract Graphdiyne (GDY), which features a highly π‐conjugated structure, direct bandgap, and high charge carrier mobility, presents the major requirements for photocatalysis. Up to now, all photocatalytic studies are performed without paying too much attention on GDY bandgap (1.1 eV at G 0 W many‐body theory level). Such narrow is not suitable band alignment between other semiconductors, making it difficult achieve efficient photogenerated separation. Herein, first time, demonstrated that...

Abstract Downsizing the graphdiyne (GDY) network to shape quantum dots (QDs) will provide attractive optical and electronic properties associated with confinement edge effects.

With a direct band gap, superior charge carrier mobility, and uniformly distributed pores, graphdiyne (GDY) has stimulated tremendous interest from the scientific community.

Here, we describe deprotection-free strategy to prepare powder directly using HEB-TMS as monomer. When CuCl was used...
