All-solid-state direct Z-scheme NiTiO3/Cd0.5Zn0.5S heterostructures for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution with visible light

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.

Constructing a 2D/2D heterojunction of MoSe2/ZnIn2S4 nanosheets for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Ting Feng et al.

Summary: The construction of two-dimensional nanosheet heterostructures with a co-catalyst can accelerate photogenerated charge transfer and increase active sites for H-2 evolution. The 2D MoSe2 nanosheets acting as a cocatalyst provide abundant active sites and reduce overpotential for water reduction. The 2D/2D heterojunction formed between MoSe2 and ZnIn2S4 accelerates charge separation and transfer, resulting in high photocatalytic activity.
