Construction of LSPR-enhanced 0D/2D CdS/MoO3-x S-scheme heterojunctions for visible-light-driven photocatalytic H2 evolution

Abstract

Abstract:

Plasmonic nonmetal semiconductors with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects possess extended light-response ranges and can act as highly efficient H₂ generation photocatalysts. Herein, an LSPR-enhanced 0D/2D CdS/MoO_3-_x heterojunction has been synthesized by the growth of 0D CdS nanoparticles on 2D plasmonic MoO_3-_x elliptical nanosheets via a simple coprecipitation method. Taking advantage of the LSPR effect of the MoO_3-_x elliptical nanosheets, the light absorption of the CdS/MoO_3-_x heterojunction was extended from 600 nm to the near-infrared region (1400 nm). Furthermore, the introduction of 2D plasmonic MoO_3-_x elliptical nanosheets not only provided a platform for the growth of CdS nanoparticles, but also contributed to the construction of an LSPR-enhanced S-scheme structure due to the interface between the MoO_3-_x and CdS, accelerating the separation of light-induced electrons and holes. Therefore, the CdS/MoO_3-_x heterojunction exhibited higher photocatalytic H₂ generation activity than pristine CdS under visible light irradiation, including under 420, 450, 550, and 650 nm monochromic light, as well as improved photo-corrosion performance.

Key words: CdS, MoO3-x, Photocatalytic H2 evolution, S-scheme, Localized surface plasmon resonance effect
