Abstract

AgInZn₇S₉ with a 2.3 eV band gap, which was a solid solution of AgInS₂ and ZnS semiconductors, showed photocatalytic activity for H₂ evolution from an aqueous solution containing sacrificial reagents SO₃^2- and S^2- under visible light irradiation (λ > 420 nm) even without a Pt cocatalyst, and loading of the Pt cocatalyst improved the photocatalytic activity.
