Constructing the Sulfur-Doped CdO@In₂O₃ Nanofibers Ternary Heterojunction for Efficient Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production.

ABSTRACT: An S-doped CdO@In₂O₃ nanofiber was successfully designed by in-situ electrospinning along and subsequent calcination treatment. Under artificial sunlight illumination, the S/CdO@In₂O₃-25 displayed a superior photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate of 4564.58 μmol·g^-1·h^-1, with approximately 22.0 and 1261.0-fold of those shown by the S/CdO and S/In₂O₃ samples, respectively. The experimental and theoretical analyses illustrate that the unique one-dimensional (1D) nanofiber morphology and rich oxygen vacancies optimized the electronic structure of the nanofibers and adsorption/desorption behaviors of reaction intermediates, contributing to the realization of the remarkable solar-to-H₂ conversion
