摘要
Zinc indium sulfide (ZnIn_(2)S_(4)),a novel photocatalyst,has attracted considerable attention and been extensively studied over the past few years owing to its various advantages such as nontoxicity,structural stability,easy availability,suitable band gap and fascinating photocatalytic activity.This review mainly focuses on the recent state-of-art progress of ZnIn_(2)S_(4)-based photocatalysts.First,we briefly introduced preparation methods of ZnIn_(2)S_(4) with diverse morphological structures.Then,considering the photocatalytic activity of pristine ZnIn_(2)S_(4) would be confined by rapid recombination of photo-generated electronhole pairs and limited light absorption range,different modulation strategies such as layer and size control,doping,vacancy engineering and hetero-nanostructures were expounded in detail.Afterwards,the applications of ZnIn_(2)S_(4) in various fields such as H_(2) production,CO_(2) reduction,value-added products synthesis,pollutant purification and N_(2) fixation are clearly summarized.In the end,we sorted out the conclusions and outlook,aiming to provide some new insights for this fascinating material.
