Synergy between van der waals heterojunction and vacancy in ZnIn2S4/g-C3N4 2D/2D photocatalysts for enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen evolution
Abstract
Abstract Fabricating 2D/2D heterojunction with vacancy is more favorable to the spatial separation and transfer of charge owing to the matching of unique 2D structure and vacancy engineering, but the regulation and observation of interlayer forces and electronic structure is a challenging task for synthesizing heterojunction photocatalyst and studying the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution mechanism. Herein, an original 2D/2D ZnIn2S4/g-C3N4 Van der Waals heterojunction with S vacancies (ZIS-S/CN VDW) photocatalyst are firstly engineered. The optimized 30ZIS-S/g-C3N4 has the highest H2 evolution rate of 6095.1 μmol h−1 g−1, which is primarily attributed to the fact that 2D/2D VDW heterojunction possesses larger contact area and strong electronic interaction to stimulate charge kinetics, and the vacancy engineering can enhance light absorption by regulating the electronic band structure and act as effective active sites for capturing electrons. This work not only enriches 2D/2D heterojunction photocatalytic system based on g-C3N4, but also provides alternative proposal for engineering 2D/2D heterojunction photocatalyst with satisfactory performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
