Developing Type-I core/shell quantum dots is of great importance toward fabricating stable and sustainable photocatalysts. However, the application systems has been limited due to strongly confined photogenerated charges by energy barrier originating from wide-bandgap shell material. In this project, we found that through decoration Au satellite-type domains on surface CdS/ZnS dots, such an can be effectively overcome over 400-fold enhancement photocatalytic H2 evolution rate was achieved...

Abstract Crystalline carbon nitride (CCN), derived from amorphous polymeric CN, is considered as a new generation of metal‐free photocatalyst because its high crystallinity. In order to further promote the photocatalytic performance CCN, p‐type MnO nanoparticles are in situ synthesized and merged with n‐type CCN through one‐pot process form p–n heterojunction. The formed interfacial electric field between semiconductors different work functions efficiently breaks coulomb interaction CCN....

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been regarded as the most promising low-cost alternatives to noble metals catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, their limited catalytically active sites HER hinder practical application. In this paper, catalytic performances of edge Janus monolayer MoXY (X/Y = S, Se and Te) were investigated using density functional theory. The results show that both Mo-edge chalcogen atomic edges are HER; thus exhibits better...

Two-dimensional materials have attracted much attention due to their good thermoelectric (TE) performance caused by the unique density of states at Fermi energy and low lattice thermal conductivity. Inspired high TE bulk Sb2Si2Te6, in this work, electronic transport, properties Sb2X2Te6 (X = Si, Ge) monolayers were investigated using functional theory combination with semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory. The results indicate that are dynamically indirect semiconductors. Sb2Si2Te6...
