In this work, a layered Bi-WN photocatalyst with a heterojunction was prepared by reducing flake-shaped WN and flower-shaped Bi2O3 in an ammonia atmosphere. Under the process of NIR light (λ > 700 nm)-driven water splitting, the optimal hydrogen (H2) generation rates based on the Bi-WN photocatalyst can reach to 7.49 μmol g-1 h-1, which is 2.47 times higher than that of WN of 3.03 μmol g-1 h-1. The result indicates that the Bi-WN photocatalyst can be effective under NIR light. Through ultraviolet-visible-NIR diffuse reflectance spectrum analysis, it can be seen that the light absorption edge of Bi-WN is obviously redshifted. Combining the results of electrochemical characterizations, we have found that the addition of the Bi metal plays an important role in NIR light-driven water splitting. Under irradiation of NIR light, the electrons on the Bi-WN substrate are stronger due to local surface plasmon resonance, which reduces the possibility of recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes on WN. In addition, after the Bi metal absorbs the photon energy, the electron-hole pairs are separated, and the H2 production rate increases significantly under the combined action of the charge transfer mechanism and the local electric field enhancement mechanism.Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are appealing candidates for solar and optoelectronic applications. Traditionally used as electron sinks, CNTs can also perform as electron donors, as exemplified by coupling with perylenediimide (PDI). To achieve high efficiencies, electron transfer (ET) should be fast, while subsequent charge recombination should be slow. Typically, defects are considered detrimental to material performance because they accelerate charge and energy losses. We demonstrate that,
