A green and environmentally benign route to synthesizing Z-scheme Bi₂S₃-TCN photocatalyst for efficient hydrogen production.

ABSTRACT: Designing and developing photocatalysts with excellent performance in order to achieve efficient hydrogen production is an important strategy for addressing future energy and environmental challenges. Traditional single-phase photocatalytic materials either have a large bandgap and low visible light response or experience rapid recombination of the photogenerated carriers with low quantum efficiency, seriously hindering their photocatalytic applications. To solve these issues, an important solution is to construct well-matched heterojunctions with highly efficient charge separation capabilities. To this end, an in situ sulfurization reaction was adopted after the deposition of Bi³⁺ supramolecular complex on a layered supramolecular precursor of tubular carbon nitride (TCN
