Controllable Synthesis of Metallic Ni3P–Ni Spheres on Graphitic Carbon Nitride Nanosheets to Promote Photocatalytic Hydrogen Generation
To achieve the construction of efficient photocatalytic H 2 generation systems, developing highly active and durable earth-abundant H 2 generation cocatalyst is still a challenge. In this paper, we construct a noble-metal-free Ni 3 P–Ni composite, which displays strong chemical stability and high-ef...
