Modification of the surface of Mn0.25Cd0.75S polyhedra with NiB: reducing the surface work function and promoting electron migration for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production

NiB is compounded on the surface of Mn0.25Cd0.75S to bring them into close contact. The photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of 10% NiB/Mn0.25Cd0.75S is 13.06 mmol g−1 h−1, which is 3.7 times higher than that of pure Mn0.25Cd0.75S.

Amorphous CoSx decorated Cd0.5Zn0.5S with a bulk-twinned homojunction for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution

Amorphous CoSx was combined with Twinned-Cd0.5Zn0.5S to construct homo-heterojunction for efficient photocatalytic H2 evolution. This work provides new ideas for constructing noble metal-free photocatalyst with homo-heterojunction.

Bifunctional black phosphorus: coupling with hematite for Z-scheme photocatalytic overall water splitting

Z-scheme 2D–2D BP/α-Fe₂O₃ heterostructure enables preferable photocatalytic properties for efficient overall water splitting under visible light.
