Abstract

Herein, heterostructured CdS/CeO_x nanowires were synthesized by a facile two-step electrochemical process and exhibited good performance in photocatalytic hydrogen production. These CdS/CeO_x nanowires showed a hydrogen evolution rate of 1290.5 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ under white light irradiation and 473.6 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ under visible light irradiation.
