Hole-Accepting-Ligand-Modified CdSe QDs for Dramatic Enhancement of Photocatalytic and Photoelectrochemical Hydrogen Evolution by Solar Energy.

ABSTRACT: Solar H₂ evolution of CdSe QDs can be significantly enhanced simply by introducing a suitable hole-accepting-ligand for achieving efficient hole extraction and transfer at the nanoscale interfaces, which opens an effective pathway for dissociation of excitons to generate long-lived charge separation, thus improving the solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency.
