Abstract

Modification of oxysulfides, such as Sm2Ti2S2O5 and Gd2Ti2S2O5, with nanoparticulate Rh (reduction site) and Ag2S (oxidation site) resulted in enhanced H2 production from water containing Na2S and Na2SO3 as electron donors, showing an apparent quantum yield of 8.8% at 440 nm. This was approximately 9 or 160 times the yield achieved using samples modified with Rh or Ag2S, respectively.
