In-situ growth of Ti3C2@MIL-NH2 composite for highly enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution

Yujie Li et al.

Summary: Efficient metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for photocatalytic H-2 production from water have gained significant attention, but their poor conductivity limits their activity. A Ti-based MOF composite (Ti3C2@MIL-NH2) was developed, showing superior H-2 evolution performance with a high rate. Intimate interfacial contact between Ti3C2 and MIL-NH2 accelerates electron transfer and improves photo-generated charge separation efficiency.

Rational designing 0D/1D Z-scheme heterojunction on CdS nanorods for efficient visible-light-driven photocatalytic H2 evolution

Bo Wang et al.

Summary: This study reports a novel 0D/1D direct Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst synthesized by anchoring W18O49 QDs onto CdS NRs, which efficiently separates photogenerated carriers and significantly improves photocatalytic H2 evolution performance. The optimal H2 production rate of the heterostructure is 55.24 mmol/h-1·g-1, outperforming pure CdS NRs and Pt/CdS by 110.5 and 3.7 times, respectively. The composite also demonstrates photocatalytic H2 evolution activity and generation of H2O2 even in the absence of hole scavengers, indicating a new protocol for efficient photocatalyst systems.

In-N-In Sites Boosting Interfacial Charge Transfer in Carbon-Coated Hollow Tubular In2O3/ZnIn2S4 Heterostructure Derived from In-MOF for Enhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution

Quan Zhang et al.

Summary: A hierarchical hollow tubular In2O3/ZnIn2S4 heterostructure was designed by growing thin-layered ZnIn2S4 on the surface of carbon-coated hollow tubular In2O3, which showed significantly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity. The enhanced activity was attributed to narrowed band gap of C/HT-In2O3 and formation of staggered heterostructure between C/HT-In2O3 and ZnIn2S4, which facilitated fast interfacial charge transfer.

Engineering an Interfacial Facet of S-Scheme Heterojunction for Improved Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution by Modulating the Internal Electric Field

Yamin Xi et al.

Summary: Constructing a step-scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction is a promising route to improve photocatalytic activities by manipulating charge transfer and separation, with interfacial facet engineering playing a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency of separation behaviors for powerful redox reactions. The directionality of migration and recombination of charge carriers is greatly accelerated by a stronger built-in electric field and band bending around the interface, leading to more efficient spatial separation for participating in overall redox reactions. It demonstrates significant superiority in photocatalytic H-2 evolution and provides new insights into the rational construction of S-scheme photocatalysts based on interfacial facet design and internal electric field regulation.

Bifang Li et al.

Summary: The NiTiO3/Cd0.5Zn0.5S heterostructures exhibit efficient and stable hydrogen production under visible light, capturing the optical spectrum and enhancing the transfer of photogenerated charge carriers. The optimized photocatalyst achieves a high H-2 production rate and apparent quantum yield, with high stability attributed to the Z-schematic charge separation mechanism. A possible H-2 evolution mechanism over the NiTiO3/Cd0.5Zn0.5S heterostructures is proposed based on band structures, DFT calculations, and ESR tests.
