2D/2D Heterojunction of R-scheme Ti₃C₂ MXene/MoS₂ Nanosheets for Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance.

ABSTRACT: Combination of two-dimensional (2D) materials and semiconductors is considered to be an effective way for fabricating photocatalysts for solving the environmental pollution and energy crisis. In this work, novel 2D/2D heterojunction of R-scheme Ti₃C₂ MXene/MoS₂ nanosheets is successfully synthesized by hydrothermal reaction. The photocatalytic activity of the Ti₃C₂ MXene/MoS₂ composites is evaluated by photocatalytic degradation and hydrogen evolution reaction. Especially, 0.5 wt% Ti₃C₂ MXene/MoS₂ sample exhibits optimum methyl orange (MO) degradation and H₂ evolution rate of 97.4% and H₂ evolution rate of 380.2 μmol h^-1 g^-1, respectively, which is
