Abstract

Abstract Interlayer interactions in two dimensional (2D) materials promote catalytic performance but often depend on the transport of inter rather than intralayer electrons. In this study, it is found that asymmetric metal‐nanocluster‐doped 2D g‐C3N4 greatly enhances catalytic performance by inducing microwave excitation of interlayer electron delocalization, resulting in a polarization of interlaminar charge transport for microwave disinfection and pneumonia therapy. Asymmetric Fe and Cu nanocluster doping (DCN‐FeCu) enables g‐C3N4 to generate interlayer electrons under microwave irradiation, leading to interlayer polarization processes and electron delocalization effects, thus enhancing the interlayer migration efficiency of electrons. It also improves impurity energy levels and leads to a decrease in work function, allowing DCN‐FeCu to produce microwave carriers across the photoelectric potential barrier under low‐energy microwave radiation (2.45 GHz). This asymmetric doping modulation produces layer number‐dependent microwave electron excitations that are verified using multi‐metal doping. Therefore, structurally modulated asymmetric doping of 2D materials with interfacial spatial effects can provide efficient microwave disinfection and pneumonia therapy.
