Abstract To address charge recombination in photocatalysis, the prevalent approach involves use of noble metal cocatalysts. However, precise factors influencing this performance variability based on cocatalyst selection have remained elusive. In study, CdS hollow spheres loaded with distinct nanoparticles (Pt, Au, and Ru) are investigated by femtosecond transient absorption (fs‐TA) spectroscopy. A more pronounced internal electric field leads to creation a larger Schottky barrier, order Pt‐CdS > Au‐CdS Ru‐CdS. Owing these varying barrier heights, interface electron transfer rate ( K e ) efficiency η metal‐CdS acetonitrile (ACN) exhibit following trend: Ru‐CdS Pt‐CdS. trends for water different (Ru‐CdS Au‐CdS) due influence water, leading consumption photogenerated electrons affecting metal/CdS state. Although displays highest , its overall photocatalytic performance, particularly H 2 production, lags behind that backflow from Ru CdS.

Abstract Photocatalytic CO 2 reduction serves as an important technology for value‐added solar fuel production, however, it is generally limited by interfacial charge transport.
