Abstract

Abstract : Cd x Zn1− x Se/CoP composites have a high efficiency of 45.1 mmol h −1 g −1 and a high quantum yield of 11.8% at ∼520 nm. Abstract : Cd x Zn1− x Se/CoP composites have been well studied as effervescent photocatalysts for H2 evolution. These composites are highly efficient at 45.1 mmol h −1 g −1 and have a high quantum yield of 11.8% at ∼520 nm. The tunable energy band of Cd x Zn1− x Se facilitates photo-electrons transferring to CoP via chemical bonds between components. Advances in Cd x Zn1− x Se/CoP for photocatalytic H2 evolution provide a new strategy for future splitting of seawater.
