Synergetic effect of MoS2 and MXene on the enhanced H2 evolution performance of CdS under visible light irradiation

Water splitting under visible light irradiation over earth-abundant, inexpensive and high active catalysts is an effective and direct way to obtain renewable H2 energy. Here, a kind of novel noble-metal-free composite photocatalyst with high hydrogen evolution performance was synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method. In the composite, MXene slice with excellent conductivity was used to promote the activity of CdS-MoS2 catalyst. A prominent H2...
