Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Physical Sciences Science & Technology
Coupled ZnO/CdS heterostructures based on the Z-scheme mechanism are demonstrated to be highly active photocatalysts for H-2 evolution under simulated solar light irradiation due to the greatly prolonged lifetime of photoexcited carriers.
