MoS2/Zn3In2S6 composite photocatalysts for enhancement of visible light-driven hydrogen production from formic acid

Robust visible-light photocatalytic H2 evolution on 2D RGO/Cd0.15Zn0.85In2S4–Ni2P hierarchitectures

“…As shown in Fig. 5b–d, the Cd 3d, Zn 2p, and In 3d spectra possessed doublet signals at 405.4–412.1 eV, 1021.9–1045.0 eV, and 445.2–452.8 eV, which corresponded to the Cd 2+ , 42,43 Zn 2+ , 44,45 and In 3+ species, 46,47 respectively. The S 2p spectrum in Fig.…”

Nanostructured CdS for efficient photocatalytic H2 evolution: A review

“…Over the past few years, numerous semiconductor photocatalysts have been developed for photocatalytic H 2 evolution water splitting, such as metal-free compounds (g-C 3 N 4 [11, [88][89][90][91][92][93][94], SiC [78,95,96], and 6,13-pentacenequinone [97]), inorganic solid solutions (Zn x Cd 1−x S [98][99][100][101][102][103], ZnIn 2 S 4 [104][105][106][107][108], Bi 1−x In x TaO 4 [109], HNb x -Ta 1−x WO 6 [59], and Mn x Cd 1−x S [110,111]), oxynitrides (BaTaO 2 N [112], LaTaON 2 , and TaON [113]), sulfides (ZnS [114][115][116][117], NiCo 2 S 4 [118], Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 [119], MoS 2 [120][121][122][123], CuInS 2 [124][125][126][127], and CdS [128][129][130]), selenides (WSe 2 [131], CoSe 2 …”

Efficient H2 evolution on Co3S4/Zn0.5Cd0.5S nanocomposites by photocatalytic synergistic reaction

“…[15][16][17][18] With H 2 generated, organic substances (like benzyl alcohol, glucose and formic acid) can be oxidized to some useful fine chemicals. [19][20][21] This method allows electrons and holes to participate in the redox reaction at one system and make full use of the energy of the holes. Therefore, from the perspective of economic and socially sustainable development, photocatalytic synergistic reactions will be more efficient than the water photolysis system to produce H 2 .…”
