Triazin-Based Graphitic Carbon Nitride (TGCN) has shown potential as a metal-free catalyst for photocatalytic water splitting, utilizing soley a visible light source and water. To gain further insight into the morphology of TGCN and the specific location where water binds during the catalytic reaction, we conducted resonant and time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy of the carbon and nitrogen sites in a clean and a water environment. These experiments were done at beamline P04 of PETRAIII and beamline PG2 of FLASH respectively. Altering the sample environment shows differences in the resonant maps of the N K-edge. Additionally, time resolved measurements showed an excitation in the nitrogen spectra, specifically in the ring structure of the graphitic system. These results aim to help to improve the catalytic performance of the sample.
