MoS2 microspheres/MOF-derived In2S3 heterostructures with enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity
Source abstract
Abstract
MoS2 microspheres/MOF-derived In2S3 heterostructures were fabricated through a two-step temperature-raising hydrothermal method. MOF-derived In2S3 porous structures were synthesized via a sulfidation process of MIL-68(In) precursor, and then MoS2 microspheres further in situ grew on the surface of In2S3 porous structures at the increased temperature. The as-obtained samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, XPS, UV-Vis DRS, and PL. Compared with pure In2S3, MoS2/In2S3 heterostructures exhibited a higher photocatalytic activity towards methyl orange degradation under visible light irradiation, which should be attributed to the stronger visible light absorption as well as the effective separation of photo-generated electrons and holes.
