Abstract

A novel visible-light-driven CDs/TiO<sub>2</sub>/g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by doping CDs in TiO<sub>2</sub> nanoparticles and the surface of g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> nanosheets <italic>via</italic> a facile hydrothermal process and was confirmed by characterization methods.
