Ultrathin Bi₂Se₃/CdS composite for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolutionviahigh interfacial charge separation and photothermal effect

Abstract

Introducing photothermal effect to promote the photocatalytic H2 rate is a good strategy and gradually gain attention. In this work, series of ultrathin Bi2Se3/CdS nanocomposite were prepared by hydrothermal method...

Facile construction of metal–organic frameworks/topological insulator heterostructure for photothermal catalytic CO2 reduction

“…[24][25][26] Among them, layered Bi 2 Se 3 nanosheets (Bi 2 Se 3 NSs) have evoked significant research attention due to their large surface area, abundant surface active sites, and superior mobility and conductivity. [27][28][29][30] Particularly, in a recently reported work, Yamauchi and co-workers proposed a methodology to introduce abundant mesopores inside the Bi 2 Se 3 film to enhance its special surface properties, where an augmented electricity conductivity was presented. 31 Meanwhile, Bi 2 Se 3 has an excellent photothermal conversion ability contributed by its remarkable infrared transmittance and localized surface plasmon enhancement.…”
