H2 production from a water-acetonitrile mixed solution containing iodide electron donor was investigated over dye-sensitized Pt/TiO2 photocatalysts under visible light irradiation, as a part of water splitting system using iodide redox mediator. The rates of H2 evolution were decreased with the increase of the water ratio in the mixed solutions, because of the decrease in energy gap between the redox potential of I3−/I− and the HOMO levels of the dyes, which lowing the efficiency of electron transfer from I− to dye.

Introduction: Solar-driven photocatalytic hydrogen production from water splitting is one of the most promising solutions to satisfy the increasing demands of a rapidly developing society. CdS has emerged as a representative semiconductor photocatalyst due to its suitable band gap and band position. However, the poor stability and rapid charge recombination of CdS restrict its application for hydrogen production. The strategy of using a cocatalyst is typically recognized as an effective approach for improving the activity, stability, and selectivity of photocatalysts. In this review, recent developments in CdS cocatalysts for hydrogen production from water splitting under visible-light irradiation are summarized. In particular, the factors affecting the photocatalytic performance and new cocatalyst design, as well as the general classification of cocatalysts, are discussed, which includes a single cocatalyst containing noble-metal cocatalysts, non-noble metals, metal-complex cocatalysts, metal-free cocatalysts, and multi-cocatalysts. Finally, future opportunities and challenges with respect to the optimization and theoretical design of cocatalysts toward the CdS photocatalytic hydrogen evolution are described.
