Oxygen-vacancy-enriched MoO3 quantum dots anchored on sulfur-vacancy-rich Zn3In2S6 heterostructures for boosted hydrogen peroxide photosynthesis from pure water

Key Points

• Boosted hydrogen peroxide production occurs through enhanced quantum dots on heterostructures, improving efficiency.
• Oxygen-vacancy-enriched MoO3 quantum dots generate increased activity leading to higher yield levels of hydrogen peroxide.
• Assessment of photosynthesis efficiency shows substantial improvements in pure water conditions, emphasizing a novel approach.
• The findings urge further exploration of vacancy-rich materials to optimize water-splitting processes for clean energy.
