Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201303571-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Two‐dimensional titania nanosheets</bold> have been utilized to fabricate 2D titania‐based mesoporous silica through a controlled sol‐gel method, which can further serve as a robust and versatile template to construct various 2D heterostructures via a nanocasting technology. 2D titania‐based CdS has been fabricated. This heterostructure manifests an excellent H₂‐production rate of 285 μmol·h⁻¹ under visible‐light irradiation and an apparent quantum yield of 6.9% at 420 nm. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg4sm2k260" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
