Carbon-based materials have great potential in application for energy storage and conversion because of their low cost, high stability and rich microstructure features. A series of carbon-based materials, represented by g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> and graphene composites, have been prepared and employed as catalysts for hydrogen abstraction from organic molecules and for electrocatalytic splitting of water. Metal nanoparticles and semiconductor supports have been integrated to form efficient catalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions. We have investigated in detail the microscopic structures, the active sites and the transport efficiencies for matter and electrons of the carbon-based materials.
