Iodine doped carbon nitride polymer (CNP) is successfully synthesized. FTIR and XRD are used to confirm the crystal structure of polymeric carbon nitride. UV-visible spectra indicate iodine doped CNP have much more visible light absorption than its parent, which accounts for its good photocatalytic ability in degradation of pollutant in water, in this case, methyl orange.In addition, photoluminescence (PL) spectra of both doped and non-doped CNP are acquired to judge the recombination between photo-generated carriers and holes.
