Abstract

Abstract : Via edge engineering, a facile two‐step method is demonstrated that produces solid edge‐on junctions between TiO2 and few‐layered MoS2 in large scale. MoS2 /TiO2 edge‐on heterostructures result in high conductive MoS2 /TiO2 interfaces and optimized electron transport pathways that facilitate the electron–hole pair separation, leading to an efficient solar water splitting.
