Highly efficient and noble metal-free NiS/CdS photocatalysts for H2 evolution from lactic acid sacrificial solution under visible light.
We report the synthesis of highly active NiS/CdS photocatalysts via a simple hydrothermal loading method for H(2) evolution from lactic acid sacrificial solution under visible light. In the absence of noble metals, a high quantum efficiency of 51.3% was measured at 420 nm.
