Abstract

In2S3/ZnIn2S4 bulk composite was successfully synthesized through an ion-exchange route using NaInS2 as a precursor. Compared with the constituent pure component (In2S3 or ZnIn2S4), the photocatalytic H2 evolution of the composite was greatly enhanced because of the efficient separation and migration of photoexcited carriers (electrons and holes) at the interface of the bulk composite.
