MoS2 nanosheet/TiO2 nanowire hybrid nanostructures for enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activities†
Abstract
We report one dimensional (1D) MoS2 nanosheet/porous TiO2 nanowire hybrid nanostructures synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, leading to an enhanced specific surface area (66 m2 g−1). These 1D hybrid nanostructures as co-catalysts exhibit high activity in visible light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with an enhanced hydrogen generation rate of 16.7 mmol h−1 g−1.
