The application relates to the technical field of nanomaterial preparation, in particular to a method for synthesizing a
zinc-
sulfur double-vacancy Zn3In2S6 photocatalyst, wherein specific-volume
ammonia water is mixed with deionized water to form a
solvent,
zinc sulfate,
indium trichloride and
thioacetamide precursors are added, and after uniform stirring, one-step
hydrothermal reaction is carried out at 160 DEG C for 12 hours, and the product is obtained through centrifugal washing and
vacuum drying. Through the coordination
induction effect of
ammonia water,
zinc vacancies and
sulfur vacancies are in-situ constructed in the Zn3In2S6
crystal lattice, the introduced defect
energy level is used as an
electron trap to capture photo-generated electrons, carrier recombination is inhibited, and the surface
active site is increased. The application can significantly improve the
hydrogen production activity under visible light, the
hydrogen evolution rate is 2.25 times that of the
hydrogen production activity without adding
ammonia water, and the application has the advantages of simple process
route, excellent catalytic performance and strong
structural stability.
