Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has, since 2009, attracted great attention for its activity as a visible-light-active photocatalyst for hydrogen evolution. Since it was synthesized in 1834, g-C3N4 has been extensively studied both catalytically and structurally. Although its 2D structure seems to...
