AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, cadmium sulfide (CdS) quantum dots are prone to agglomeration, and the separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes is low. The rapid recombination between electrons and holes and photocorrosion phenomenon hinders the improvement of their photocatalytic efficiency.
CdS quantum dots with sulfur defects were prepared by heating a mixed solution of the sulfur source and the Cd precursor solution under an inert atmosphere, and controlling the reaction conditions such as temperature, time and cooling rate. This method simplifies the process without the need for precious metal catalysts and improves electron-hole separation efficiency by constructing sulfur defects.
The efficient preparation of sulfur-deficient CdS quantum dots is achieved, which improves its photocatalytic activity and dispersion, enhances the absorption capacity of visible light, and significantly improves the photoreforming performance and hydrogen evolution activity.
