Abstract
2D lamellar materials can offer high surface area and abundant reactive sites, thus showing an appealing prospect in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. However, it is still difficult to build cost-efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution systems based on 2D materials. Herein, an in situ growth method is employed to build 2D/2D heterojunctions, with which 2D Ni-based metal-organic layers (Ni-MOLs) are closely grown on 2D porous CdS (P-CdS) nanosheets, affording traditional P-CdS/Ni-MOL heterojunction materials. Impressively, the optimized P-CdS/Ni-MOL catalyst exhibits superior photocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance, with an H2 yield of 29.81 mmol g-1 h-1 . This value is 7 and 2981 times higher than that of P-CdS and Ni-MOLs, respectively, and comparable to those of reported state of the art catalysts. Photocatalytic mechanism studies reveal that the enhanced photocatalytic performance can be attributed to the 2D/2D intimate interface between P-CdS and Ni-MOLs, which facilitates the fast charge carriers' separation and transfer. This work provides a strategy to develop 2D MOL-based photocatalysts for sustainable energy conversion.

Abstract
Hollow CuCo2S4 nanorods (H-CCS-Ns) have been successfully developed via a facile successive anion/cation-exchange method. The outstanding electrocatalytic performance of H-CCS-Ns is mainly attributed to its distinctive hollow structure, which accelerates the electron transfer rate and provides abundant active sites. Moreover, a mechanism study indicates that H-CCS-Ns has highly active octahedral Co3+, and the existence of Co3+ cations optimizes the adsorption of oxygen-involved intermediates, making H-CCS-Ns a promising OER electrocatalyst. Optimized H-CCS-Ns only need an ultralow overpotential of 220 mV to drive a current density of 10 mA·cm-2 and exhibit distinguished cycling stability with a negligible fluctuation for 30 h. More impressively, when H-CCS-Ns are assembled with Pt/C for overall water splitting, a voltage as low as 1.545 V is required at a current density of 10 mA·cm-2, and the catalyst shows outstanding stability for as long as 38 h. This study offers a feasible strategy to design hollow spinel catalysts for efficient OER catalysis.

Abstract
Photocatalytic reactions over effective photocatalysts are attractive to explore clean hydrogen energy from water with the utilization of solar energy. Ternary Co1-xS@ZnCoS/CdS (ZCS/CdS) composites are constructed as photocatalysts through the hydrothermal formation of Co1-xS and ZnCoS nanoparticles on CdS nanorods. Superior to the binary Co1-xS/CdS composite, ZCS/CdS shows the improved photocatalytic activity with a hydrogen production rate of 58.4 mmol·g-1·h-1, which is 31.4 and 2.1 times higher than those of CdS and Co1-xS/CdS, respectively. Different from binary Co1-xS/CdS, the participation of a small amount of zinc favors the formation of ZnCoS solid solution in ZCS/CdS. A synergistic promotion effect of ZnCoS and Co1-xS is confirmed due to tight heterojunctions among Co1-xS, ZnCoS, and CdS in ZCS/CdS. The unique heterostructure of ZCS/CdS benefits its enhanced absorption ability of visible light, accelerating the separation of photoinduced electron-hole pairs and the electron transfer. ZCS/CdS exhibits the strong reduction ability and superior photocatalytic stability due to the role of double Z-scheme electron transfer pathways in the ternary composite. This work provides a suitable way to tune noble metal-free composite photocatalysts for efficient H2 production.

Abstract
For the past few years, two-dimensional materials have attracted widespread attention owing to their special properties and potential applications. It is well-known that graphene, transition metal disulfide compounds (TMDC), carbon nitride, transition metal carbonitrides (Mxenes), silene and hexagonal boron nitride are typical two-dimensional materials. Compared with these traditional two-dimensional materials, two-dimensional MOF is favored by numerous researchers because of its unique structure. Based on the unique metal ion and organic ligand coordination of MOF and two-dimensional layered structure, the applications of two-dimensional MOF were getting serious, including catalysis, supercapacitor, gas adsorption/separation, sensors and so on. This review presents a relatively comprehensive summary of the design & synthesis and applications of two-dimensional MOF over the past few years. Furthermore, the opportunities and challenges have been discussed to supply a promising prospect to this field.

Abstract
Photocatalysts based on zinc hydroxide and a solid solution of CdS and ZnS were prepared via the precipitation method and used for photocatalytic hydrogen production from aqueous solutions of inorganic (Na2S/Na2SO3) and organic (ethanol) sacrificial agents. The photocatalysts were tested in cyclic experiments for hydrogen evolution and studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques. Different transformations of the β-Zn(OH)2 co-catalyst were observed in the presence of inorganic and organic sacrificial agents; namely, ZnS was formed in Na2S/Na2SO3 solution, whereas the formation of ε-Zn(OH)2 was detected in solution with ethanol. The composite Zn(OH)2/Cd1−xZnxS photocatalysts have great potential in various photocatalysis processes (e.g., hydrogen production, CO2 reduction, and the oxidation of organic contaminants) under visible light. The nature of the sacrificial agent affects the transformations of a Zn(OH)2 co-catalyst during photocatalytic hydrogen production.![]()

Abstract
Although transition-metal-based sulfides have been identified as efficient catalysts to replace expensive noble metal catalysts for photocatalytic H2 evolution reaction (HER), their activities are still unsatisfied and could be further improved by controlling their microstructures and electronic structures. Herein, we present an effective strategy to confine highly active Mo-activated CoSx (Mo-CoSx) active sites within MCM-41 frameworks by sulfurization of Co-doped MCM-41 during the in situ photoreduction of [MoS4]2- in Erythrosin B-triethanolamine (ErB-TEOA) system. It is found that Co-MCM-41 offers not only abundant coordinatively unsaturated Co sites to be activated by Mo and S but also large surface area to effectively disperse the in situ generated amorphous Mo-CoSx active sites. Under 520 nm irradiation, the most efficient Mo-CoSx/MCM-41-100 (Si/Co = 100) catalyst exhibits ~7, 3, and 4 times higher H2 evolution activity than free MoSx, free Mo-CoSx, and CoSx/MCM-41-100, respectively, and an apparent quantum yield (AQY) of 12.3% for H2 evolution. Furthermore, when Mo-CoSx/MCM-41-100 was sensitized with a more stable fluorescein (FL) dye, the photocatalytic system shows a sustainable H2 evolution activity in a 20 h reaction, showing the good stability of Mo-CoSx/MCM-41-100 catalyst. This work provides a new insight into the design and development of highly active hybrid H2 evolution catalysts based on transition metals for highly efficient and large-scale solar energy conversion to clean H2 energy.
