In-situ construction NiS, In(OH)3 and InOOH on the ZnIn2S4 nanosheet for synergistically boosting the photocatalytic H2 evolution
Source abstract
Abstract
A quaternary nanoflower photocatalyst, NiS/In(OH) 3/InOOH/ZnIn 2S 4, with compact heterojunction, is synthesized through a two-step solvothermal method. NiS, In(OH) 3 and InOOH are generated in situ on the surface of ZnIn 2S 4 nanosheets. Namely, the S of NiS, the In of In(OH) 3 and InOOH are directly derived from ZnIn 2S 4. In addition, the relative amount of In(OH) 3 and InOOH in the NiS/In(OH) 3/InOOH/ZnIn 2S 4 composite can be controlled by adjusting the dosage of Ni 2+ during the second solvothermal process. The average H 2 evolution rate of NiS-ZIS-1 is 1911 μmol·g −1·h −1, approximately 5.1, 2.4, 3.5 times higher than that of ZIS, In(OH) 3/InOOH/ZnIn 2S 4, and NiS/ZnIn 2S 4, respectively. Structural characterizations, photoelectric property tests, theoretical calculations, and in-situ XPS analyses reveal that the excellent visible light photocatalytic H 2 production property of the NiS/In(OH) 3/InOOH/ZnIn 2S 4 composite is due to the synergistic interaction of NiS, In(OH) 3 and InOOH. Namely, the in-situ construction of NiS, In(OH) 3 and InOOH on the ZnIn 2S 4 nanosheets can accelerate the electrons migration and improve the charge carriers’ separation efficiency. Meanwhile, the NiS, In(OH) 3 and InOOH provide more active sites for the reduction of H + reduction to H 2.
