Highly efficient photosynthesis of H2O2via two-channel pathway photocatalytic water splitting

Abstract

In this work, we successfully synthesized CdS nanorods with a tunable morphology and structure by adjusting the composition of the solvent for the efficient production of H2O2via a two-channel pathway for photocatalytic water splitting under ambient conditions and organic electron donor free. The uniform nanorods of CdS provide a larger specific surface and a shorter charge transfer distance, which is beneficial for the separation of electron–hole pairs, thus having a great promotion effect on the increase of its H2O2 yield. Under ambient conditions and organic electron donor free, CdS nanorods achieve photocatalytic water splitting through the oxygen reduction reaction and water oxidation reaction with a high H2O2 yield of 1127 μmol h−1 g−1.
