Noble-metal-free photocatalysts MoS₂–graphene/CdS mixed nanoparticles/nanorods morphology with high visible light efficiency for H₂evolution

Abstract

A highly active and stable photocatalyst MoS2-graphene/CdS nanoparticles/nanorods was prepared using a facile two-step hydrothermal method. The noble-metal-free photocatalyst achieved a remarkable quantum yield of 65.8% at 420 nm for photocatalytic H2 evolution from water.
