Superior visible light hydrogen evolution of Janus bilayer junctions via atomic-level charge flow steering
Open accessAbstract
Although photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) is ideal for solar-to-fuel conversion, it remains challenging to construct a highly efficient PHE system by steering the charge flow in a precise manner. Here we tackle this challenge by assembling 1T MoS 2 monolayers selectively and chemically onto (Bi 12 O 17) end-faces of Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 monolayers to craft two-dimensional (2D) Janus (Cl 2)-(Bi 12 O 17)-(MoS 2) bilayer junctions, a new 2D motif different from van der Waals heterostructure. Electrons and holes from visible light-irradiated Bi 12 O 17 Cl 2 are directionally separated by the internal electric field to (Bi 12 O 17) and (Cl 2) end-faces, respectively. The separated electrons can further migrate to MoS 2 via Bi–S bonds formed between (Bi 12 O 17) and MoS 2 monolayers. This atomic-level directional charge separation endows the Janus bilayers with ultralong carrier lifetime of 3,446 ns and hence a superior visible-light PHE rate of 33 mmol h−1 g−1. Our delineated Janus bilayer junctions on the basis of the oriented assembly of monolayers presents a new design concept to effectively steer the charge flow for PHE.

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.
