摘要
Designing and constructing advanced heterojunction architectures are desirable for boosting CO2 photoreduction performance of semiconductor photocatalysts. Herein, we have prepared hierarchical ZnS@ZnIn2S4 core-shell cages with controlled particle sizes using sequential synthesis of Zeolitic imidazolate (ZIF-8) polyhedrons, ZnS cages, and ZnIn2S4 nanosheets on the ZnS polyhedron cages. ZIF-8 polyhedrons are firstly synthesized by a liquid-phase approach. The subsequent sulfidation of the ZIF-8 polyhedrons results in the formation of ZnS polyhedron cages, which act as substrates for fabricating ZnS@ZnIn2S4 core-shell cages by growing ZnIn2S4 nanosheets. The size of ZnS cages can be tuned to optimize CO2 photoreduction performance of hierarchical ZnS@ZnIn2S4 core-shell cages. The synergy of the unique hierarchical core-shell cage-like structure and heterojunction composition endows the hybrid catalyst high incident light utilization, abundant active sites, and effective separation of photoexcited charge carriers. Benefiting from these advantages, the optimized hierarchical ZnS@ZnIn2S4 core-shell cages exhibit enhanced performance for CO2 photoreduction with the CO yield of 87.43 μmol h-1g-1 and 84.3% selectivity, which are much superior to those of single ZnIn2S4 or ZnS. Upon Au decoration, the CO2 photoreduction performance of ZnS@ZnIn2S4 core-shell cages is further enhanced because of the Schottky junctions and surface plasmon resonance effect.
