Zusammenfassung:This Perspective provides a critical summary of the current state of the art in the synthesis and properties of polyheptazine single-layer carbon nitride (SLCN). The summary combines the authors' research and literature reports on SLCN concerning the synthesis of single-layer polyheptazine sheets, light absorption and emission by SLCN, photochemical and photocatalytic properties of SLCN as well as examples of applications of SLCN sheets as "building blocks" in heterostructures with nanocrystalline semiconductors and metals. The Perspective is concluded with an outlook discussing the most promising directions for further studies and applications of SLCN and related composites. This Perspective provides a critical summary of the current state of the art in the synthesis and properties of polyheptazine single-layer carbon nitride (SLCN).
