      abstract     = {We provide a critical review of the current state of the
                      synthesis and applications of nano- and micro-tubes of
                      layeredgraphitic carbon nitride. This emerging material has
                      a huge potential for light-harvesting applications,
                      including lightsensing, artificial photosynthesis, selective
                      photocatalysis, hydrogen storage, light-induced motion,
                      membranetechnologies, and can become a major competitor for
                      such established materials as carbon and titania dioxide
                      nanotubes.Graphitic carbon nitride tubes (GCNTs) combine
                      visible-light sensitivity, high charge carrier mobility, and
                      exceptionalchemical/photochemical stability, imparting this
                      material with unrivaled photocatalytic activities in
                      photosyntheticprocesses, such as water splitting and carbon
                      dioxide reduction. The unique geometric GCNT structure and
                      versatility ofpossible chemical modifications allow new
                      photocatalytic applications of GCNTs to be envisaged
                      including selectivephotocatalysts of multi-electron
                      processes as well as light-induced and light-directed motion
                      of GCNT-basedmicroswimmers. Closely-packed arrays of aligned
                      GCNTs show great promise as multifunctional membrane
                      materials forthe light energy conversion and storage,
                      light-driven pumping of liquids, selective adsorption, and
                      electrochemicalapplications. These emerging applications
                      require synthetic routes to GCNTs with highly controlled
                      morphologicalparameters and composition to be available. We
                      recognize three major strategies for the GCNT synthesis
                      includingtemplating, supramolecular assemblying of
                      precursors, and scrolling of nano-/microsheets, and outline
                      promising routesfor further progress of these approaches in
                      the light of the most important emerging applications of
                      GCNTs.},
