Key Points

To enhance the efficiency and stability of ZnIn2S4 in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution by utilizing a solid-state Z-scheme.
Developed a solid-state Z-scheme heterojunction using UiO-67 and ZnIn2S4 with Pt as a co-catalyst.
Analyzed photocatalytic activity and charge transport behavior under visible light.
Evaluated stability against charge recombination and photocorrosion.
Significantly improved hydrogen evolution rate compared to ZnIn2S4 alone.
Enhanced stability against photocorrosion observed over extended reaction times.
Reduced charge recombination rates facilitated by the UiO-67-mediated design.

Implication

Demonstrates improved hydrogen evolution in photocatalysts using a UiO-67-mediated Z-scheme strategy, indicating enhanced stability.

Abstract

ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) is a promising visible-light photocatalyst, yet its activity and stability are severely limited by rapid charge recombination and photocorrosion. Here we report a UiO-67-mediated solid-state Z-scheme strategy to...
