Enhanced hydrogen evolution from water splitting based on ZnO nanosheet/CdS nanoparticle heterostructures

) without Pt loading under visible light radiation. The structure was prepared by first constructing two-dimensional nanocrystalline ZnO flowers and then loading CdS nanoparticles onto the nanocrystals. Results show that this structure can facilitate the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes and improve the photocatalytic efficiency and stability of the materials in the photocatalytic decomposition of water. By changing different experimental conditions to prepare a variety of samples and test their properties, we can analyze the optimal parameters for the preparation of this material.
