Abstract: | Heterojunction photocatalysts based on semiconducting nanoparticles show excellent performance in many photocatalytic reactions. In this study, 0D/0D heterojunction photocatalysts containing CdS and NiS nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully synthesized by a chemical precipitation method. The NiS NPs were grown in situ on CdS NPs, ensuring intimate contact between the semiconductors and improving the separation efficiency of hole-electron pairs. The obtained NiS/CdS composite delivered a photocatalytic H2 evolution rate (7.49 mmol h?1 g?1), which was 39.42 times as high as that of pure CdS (0.19 mmol h?1 g?1). This study demonstrates the advantages of 0D/0D heterojunction photocatalysts for visible light-driven photocatalytic hydrogen production. |
