Abstract

Polyoxo-titanium clusters (PTCs) are applied to construct highly efficient ternary PTC/CdS/MIL-101 visible-light-range H₂ -evolution photocatalysts. The application of PTCs not only increases the photocatalytic activities but also provides a molecular tool to tune them.

Keywords: CdS; metal-organic frameworks; photocatalysis; polyoxo-titanium clusters; water splitting.
