Photocatalytic decomposition of formic acid (FA) to syngas (H2 + CO) is a valuable sustainable energy conversion strategy. In this study, we combine In2S3 nanoparticles with Cd0.9Zn0.1S nanorods (In2S3/CZS) construct heterojunctions for directly converting under visible light (λ > 420 nm) irradiation. The In2S3/CZS composite was facilely synthesized by hydrothermal reaction. showed excellent photocatalytic activity FA decomposition. optimal generation rates H2 and CO can reach 200 204 μmol·h–1, respectively, which one the best performances in synthesizing syngas. Under irradiation nm monochromatic light, exhibit apparent quantum yields 9.7% 10.6%, respectively. test date confirms formation type II heterojunction between nanoparticles. It effectively promote transport separation interfacial charges. This work also provides insight into development an efficient system production.

High-entropy materials (HEMs) have garnered extensive attention owing to their diverse and captivating physicochemical properties. Yet, fine-tuning morphological properties of HEMs remains a formidable challenge, constraining potential applications. To address this, we present rapid, low-energy consumption diethylenetriamine (DETA)-assisted microwave hydrothermal method for synthesizing series two-dimensional high-entropy selenides (HESes). Subsequently, the obtained HESes are harnessed photocatalytic water splitting. Noteworthy is optimized HESes, Cd
