Here we report a facile impregnation synthesis of layered Co­(OH)2 deposited with g-C3N4 while the pH value is adjusted by using ammonia solution for photocatalytic water oxidation with UV–vis and visible light illumination. This surface modification not only accelerates the interface transfer rate...
