Microwave-assisted synthesis of a nanocrystalline Cd0.6Zn0.4S photocatalyst with a twin structure: the effect of SDBS and enhanced performance for H2 evolution†
Abstract
A nanocrystalline Cd0.6Zn0.4S photocatalyst with a nanotwin structure has been successfully synthesized through a microwave-assisted synthetic method with the assistance of SDBS. A molecular dynamics simulation was carried out to study the adsorption behavior of SDBS molecules on the (111) surface of the Cd0.5Zn0.5S solid solution.
