摘要
The photocatalytic activity of CdS can be greatly improved by co-modification of NiS and TiO_2 materials; furthermore the order of connection affects much. A directional electron transfer route via CdS → TiO_2→ NiS is found crucial to the enhancement of ternary catalyst, where TiO_2 acts as an electron reservoir and Ni S works as an effective cocatalyst. Cd S/TiO_2@Ni S with Ni S loaded on TiO_2 has an activity of H_2 evolution 2.5 times higher than NiS@Cd S/TiO_2 with Ni S pre-loaded on Cd S. Faster e-/h+separation rates is obtained of Cd S/TiO_2@Ni S under visible light than under extra UV light irradiation, which in turn demonstrates the importance of directional electron transfer route.
