Two-dimensional CuS/MoS 2 heterostructure with high photocatalytic activity had been successfully obtained by a simple combination of wet chemical method and hydrothermal process. CuS nanosheets had been successfully grown on the twodimensional MoS 2 nanosheets uniformly and tightly. The obtained heterostructures were well characterized through X-ray diffraction patterns, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra, ultraviolet-visible diffuse-reflectance spectra, and Zeta potential measurement. Photocatalytic performance of the CuS/MoS 2 nanocomposite was evaluated toward the decomposition of methylene blue solution under natural light. The as-prepared nanocomposite showed remarkably enhanced photocatalytic activity compared with pure CuS and MoS 2 . This could be attributed to the enhanced dyestuff absorption and charge transport after the conjugation between CuS and MoS 2 .
