摘      要：Carbon nitride(g-C_(3)N_(4))is a promising metal-free and visible-light-responsive ***,its photocatalytic efficiency still suffers from high recombination rates of photoinduced charge carriers,slow kinetics of surface redox reactions,and relatively poor light ***,a non-noble metal photocatalyst of MoS_(2) nanodots anchored on P-doped g-C_(3)N_(4) via in situ photodeposition was *** the synergetic effect of the P-doping and MoS_(2) co-catalyst,the as-prepared P-doped g-C_(3)N_(4)/MoS_(2) catalyst has achieved efficient photocatalytic overall water splitting with a hydrogen evolution rate of 121.7μmol h−1 g−*** results and Density functional theory(DFT)simulations indicate that the enhanced photo-absorption capacity originates from the reduced band gaps by P ***,the MoS_(2) reduces the overpotential of the water oxidation process and improves hydrogen adsorption capability in the hydrogen evolution *** work can pave a new avenue to design and develop noble-metal-free water-splitting photocatalysts for future large-scale applications.
