Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this study, we report a novel carbon-based semiconductor photocatalyst g-CN/ZnWO nanocomposites with various contents of ZnWO were successfully constructed through a facile and eco-friendly in situ hydrothermal synthesis. The structure, morphology and chemical states of the as-prepared nanocomposites were studied by XRD, TEM and XPS measurements. Further, the surface of the fabricated 2D g-CN nanosheets was completely decorated with 1D ZnWO nanorods. The results of photocatalytic investigations signify that the synthesized heterostructured g-CN/ZnWO photocatalysts display substantially improved catalytic performance for the decolorization of rhodamine B (RhB) upon visible-light treatment. The improved catalytic activity could be attributed to the formation of heterojunction between g-CN and ZnWO, and effective photogenerated electron–hole pair’s separation. A likely catalytic reaction mechanism for the improved decomposition efficiency of RhB by g-CN/ZnWO nanocomposites is also proposed.
