چکیده
A novel amorphous cobalt tin composite oxide decorated with graphene nanohybrid (CoSnxOy/G) sensitized by Eosin Y (EY) exhibited excellent photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity (974.6 μmol for 3 h) under visible light irradiation. The highest AQE of EY-CoSnxOy/G of 20.1% was achieved at 430 nm.

متن کاملEnhanced Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution by Loading Cd0.5Zn0.5S QDs onto Ni2P Porous Nanosheets
Ni2P has been decorated on CdS nanowires or nanorods for efficient photocatalytic H2 production, whereas the specific surface area remains limited because of the large size. Here, the composites of Cd0.5Zn0.5S quantum dots (QDs) on thin Ni2P porous nanosheets with high specific surface area were constructed for noble metal-free photocatalytic H2 generation. The porous Ni2P nanosheets, which wer...
