The invention discloses a preparation method of a sulfide-graphene composite material photoelectric catalyst. The preparation method comprises the following steps: first, dispersing graphene oxide powder in water to obtain a graphene oxide dispersion liquid; then, adding soluble metal salt into the dispersion liquid, stewing the liquid, washing precipitates, and drying and grinding the precipitates to obtain metal ion-doped graphene oxide powder; dispersing the powder into deionized water again, stirring the powder, adding a sulfide precursor salt solution, adding thiourea, stirring the materials, obtaining a reaction product according to a one-step hydrothermal method, naturally cooling the product to room temperature, centrifugally washing the reaction product, and drying the product toobtain solid powder. The preparation method of a sulfide/graphene compound is simple; metal ions are used as an interface connection agent for sulfide and the surface of the graphene and a seed layerfor sulfide growth, so that uniform dispersion of a sulfide sheet layer is promoted, and stacking of the sulfide sheet layer is inhibited; a large specific surface area can provide a plurality of active sites, so that the catalysis performance of a composite material is effectively improved.
