Fabrication of sulfur doped exfoliated gCN photocatalyst for enhanced visible light degradation of pernicious organic pollutants and their photocatalytic antibacterial activity

The synthesis of sulfur-doped exfoliated graphitic carbon nitride (S-gCN) photocatalyst was achieved by the implementation of a two-step calcination technique. The XRD results revealed that all the fabricated photocatalytic materials were crystalline in nature. The inclusion of 5% sulfur in gCN led to a conspicuous escalation in the surface area of photocatalyst, rising from 10.294 to 61.185 m
