Design of 2D/2D Pt SA-MoS2/ZnIn2S4 photocatalysts for boosting hydrogen production
The exceptional capabilities of single-atom photocatalysts play a crucial role in enhancing efficient photocatalytic water-splitting reactions. However, the precise construction of an appropriate single atom catalysts-semiconductor configuration is essential but remains challenging. Here we construct a high-performance photocatalyst by anchoring Pt single atoms (SAs) on a two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 nanosheet, which serves as a cocatalyst coherently connected to 2D hexagonal ZnIn2S4 (h-ZIS) nanosheets. This 2D/2D heterostructure promotes highly efficient separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers. An optimized nanocomposite, 2D/2D Pt SA-MoS2/h-ZIS, achieves a hydrogen evolution rate of 13.3 mmol·h−1·g−1 and a remarkable turnover frequency of 3342 h−1. The outstanding performance is attributed to the synergistic effect of the coherent 2D/2D structure that leads to a modulated band structure of h-ZIS, improved charge separation and transfer of photogenerated carriers, and the highly active platinum single atom cocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). This study provides strategic insights for the rational design of efficient single-atom photocatalysts.
