Abstract

Abstract Hexagonal cadmium sulfide (CdS) with a noncentro-symmetric structure exhibits piezoelectric and pyroelectric effect due to spontaneous polarization changes companied by temperature variation. However, its pyroelectric effect in pyroelectro-catalytic hydrogen evolution has not been well identified. Herein, we found that CdS nanorods decorated with an organic molecule 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (2MBI) can greatly enhance the pyroelectro-catalytic hydrogen evolution activity. The 2MBI acted as a molecular co-catalyst improves the pyroelectric property of CdS and enhances the separation of pyroelectro-induced charges. Under thermal cycling between 25 °C and 55 °C, CdS-2MBI shows apparently improved pyroelectro-catalytic H2 evolution activity, which is about 5 folds of that for CdS alone. This work may initiate a new prospect for pyroelectric effect in photocatalysis, such as the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution under natural temperature fluctuations.

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.
