Cocatalyst decoration has demonstrated to be effective in boosting CO2 photocatalytic conversion, yet the critical role of sing-atomic state on CO2 photocatalytic reduction, distinguished from the oxide and elemental states, remains a mystery hitherto. Herein, palladium single-atoms, palladium oxides, and palladium nanoparticles were homogeneously anchored on g-C3N4 to investigate their CO2 photocatalytic reduction behaviors. And the mechanism behind their significantly different activities, especially the role of Pd-SA in boosting CH4 production were comprehensively revealed.
