We developed a facile hydrothermal method to fabricate the carbon quantum dots (CQDs)/MoS2 composite as hydrogen evolution reduction (HER) catalyst. After irradiation with visible light for 30 min, the CQDs/MoS2 composite (as CQDs/MoS2-L30) performed improved HER activity, featured by a small overpotential of similar to 0.125 V at 10 mA cm(-2), a high current density, a small Tafel slope of 45 mV/decade and a long term stability in 0.5 M H2SO4. This kind of activity improvement towards HER may be due to the high charge transfer efficiency, the decrease of S4+ and the increase of S-2(2-) and S2- after the light treatment.
