[摘要]:Two-dimensional CdS micro/nano leaves have been synthesized via a controlled hydrothermal process. The dimensions of the leaves is in the range of 4-6 mu m and the thickness of the leaves is 30-50 nm. The surface of the leaves is smooth and composed of several parallel laminar layers with multi-steps. The SAED and HRTEM images indicated that the surface of the leaves was mainly composed of (0001) plane and all the leaves had single-crystallinity. The morphology of the as-prepared products could be controlled by adjusting the concentration of hydrofluoric acid (HF). The effects of HF concentration, reaction temperature and time were investigated. A possible formation mechanism is proposed based on the intrinsic crystal structure and selected adsorption processes. In addition, the as-prepared CdS pinnate leaves showed enhanced photocatalytic activity toward hydrogen evolution under visible light irradiation. The efficiency of micro/nano leaves was more than 6 times greater than normal CdS microparticles. |
