Abstract

Here we report multilayer hollow spheres consisting of alternating ultrathin Ti0.91O2 nanosheets and CdS nanoparticles via exquisite layer-by-layer self-assembly to achieve an all solid-state Z-scheme system with 7-times enhancement of the CH4-production rate relative to pure Ti0.91O2 hollow spheres, due to a greatly prolonged lifetime of charge carriers.
