The fabrication of S-scheme heterojunctions has received considerable attention as an effective approach to promote the separation and migration of photoexcited electron/hole pairs and retain strong redox abilities. Herein, an imine-based porous covalent organic framework (COF-LZU1) is integrated with controllably fabricated CdS hollow cubes, resulting in the formation of an S-scheme heterojunction. When the COF content reaches 1.5 wt%, the COF/CdS heterostructure (1.5%COF/CdS) achieves the highest hydrogen generation rate of 8670 μmol·h –1 ·g –1 , which is approximately 2.1 times higher than that of pure CdS. The apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) of 1.5%COF/CdS is approximately 8.9% at 420 nm. Further systematic analysis shows that the intimate contact interface and suitable energy band structures between CdS and COF can induce the formation of an internal electric field at the heterojunction interface, which can effectively drive the spatial separation of photoexcited charge carriers and simultaneously maintain a strong redox ability, thus enhancing the photocatalytic H 2 evolution performance.

The development of excellent photocatalysts for hydrogen evolution is of great significance to solving the global energy crisis. In this work, a novel 3D hierarchical CdS/NiAl-LDH photocatalyst was fabricated by a facile electrostatic assembly strategy, which was composed of 1D CdS nanorods and 3D flower-like NiAl-LDH microspheres . Under the visible irradiation, the CNA-20 hierarchical photocatalyst presents the optimum hydrogen evolution rate achieved to 3.24 mmol g −1 h −1 , which is improved 6.23-fold in comparison with the pure CdS. Through the analysis of energy band structures and first-principles calculation, the type-Ⅱ charge transfer mechanism was proposed. Driven by the built-in electric field, as well as the effect of intimate interface contact of CdS and NiAl-LDH, the photogenerated charge could be achieved rapidly separate and migrate, which effectively promotes the H 2 evolution. This well-designed synergistic 1D/3D interface interaction and provides an economic approach to rationally developing metal-free photocatalysts for hydrogen production .

This study reports the synthesis of CdS/WS2 composites via a green and ultra-low-cost hydrothermal method. By controlling the relative mass ratio between WS2 and CdS, an n–n type CdS/WS2 heterostructure, with excellent NH3 gas-sensitive properties, was developed and investigated at room temperature. Compared with pristine WS2 and CdS, the CdS/WS2-40%wt composite exhibited excellent selectivity of more than 4 orders of magnitude for sensing NH3, a very short recovery time of 3 s, and ultrahigh selectivity at room temperature. The large specific surface area of the CdS/WS2 composite increased the active sites for the gas-sensitive reaction. Additionally, the 2D morphology of CdS/WS2 and the heterojunction formed between WS2 and CdS contributed to the improved performance. Anti-humidity interference tests showed that the CdS/WS2 sample remained stable under real-time monitoring of NH3 at different ambient humidity values. This study paves the way for designing high-performance gas sensors operating at room temperature.

In this work, we successfully synthesized a series of CdS-BiOCl/PAN composites by two-step method including electrospinning process and hydrothermal process. The CdS-BiOCl/PAN composites showed great photocatalytic performance and chemical stability for H 2 production under UV–vis light irradiation due to the synergistic effect among CdS, BiOCl and PAN. Meanwhile, the content of CdS in CdS-BiOCl/PAN composites plays an important role in photo-catalytic abilities. In addition, according to the analysis about the photocatalyst, the possible photocatalytic mechanism and synergistic interaction were further discussed.

In this paper, a novel type of core–shell structured ZnFe2O4@CdS composite photocatalyst is successfully synthesized by a facile two-step strategy method. The corresponding morphology, structure and optical properties of developed photocatalyst were well
characterized. The photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline (TC) experiments indicated that the ZnFe2O4@CdS core–shell exhibited a higher photocatalytic activity than the pure ZnFe2O4 and CdS under the visible light irradiation, especially
0.1 g ZnFe2O4@CdS composites with a content of 78 wt.% CdS resulted in 95.31% degradation of 20 mg/L TC in 90 min. with 0.1 g catalyst. Furthermore, the photodegradation mechanism was investigated by trapping experiments, which revealed that .O–2
was the most active species in the photodegradation process. And the possible process of charge transfer for ZnFe2O4@CdS composite photocatalyst was proposed based on the experimental results.

This work demonstrates that the photoelectrochemical response of the CdS/Bi 2 O 2.33 direct Z-scheme heterojunction, synthesized by in situ deposition of CdS nanocrystals on the defect engineered Bi 2 O 2.33 , can be modulated by oxygen defect concentration. The appropriate oxygen defects not only increase the visible light absorption, provide active reaction sites to enhance PEC activity, but also promote the separation of carriers. The formation of CdS/Bi 2 O 2.33 direct Z-scheme heterojunction further improves these properties by extending the visible light absorption and promoting separation and transport of carriers, but avoids the usage of noble metal nanoparticles as electron transfer mediators, thus has a low cost and easy fabrication technology. The CdS/Bi 2 O 2.33 direct Z-scheme junction shows significantly improved photocurrent response as compared with those containing less oxygen defects, and is applied as a photoelectrochemical assay platform for Hg 2+ . The specific interaction between Hg 2+ and the S 2− in CdS significantly quenches the photocurrent response of the CdS/Bi 2 O 2.33 due to the formation of HgS. The photocurrent decrease is linear to the concentration of Hg 2+ in the range from 10 −11 to 10 −6 g/mL, with the limit of detection of 3.2 pg/mL. High accuracy and good reproducibility are realized in the real sample analysis of urine, river water, and sea water. The integration of oxygen defect engineering and direct Z-scheme electron transport principle provides a new avenue for fabricating high performance photoelectrochemical materials, which can be further combined with bio-recognition strategy for the ultrasensitive detection of biological molecules.

As the highest energy facet of wurtzite CdS, (0 0 2) facet is well worth investigating toward the contribution in photocatalytic hydrogen (H 2 ) evolution. In this study, flower-like CdS with highly preferred (0 0 2) facet was fabricated through a low temperature mixed-solvothermal strategy. The mixted-solvent of diethylenetriamine (DETA) and ethyl alcohol (EtOH) was used to inhibit the growth of (1 0 0) and (1 0 1) facets. For comparison, porous flower-like, belt-like and net-like CdS samples with different preferred degrees of (0 0 2) facet were controllably synthesized by the addition of H 2 O in different proportions. The preferred orientation degrees of (0 0 2) facet were qualitative proved by the mathematical fitting of XRD patterns. As expected, the flower-like CdS exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity on H 2 evolution under visible light without any co-catalyst. Meanwhile, the photocatalytic H 2 production increased with the increasement of exposed (0 0 2) facet, which suggested that (0 0 2) facet of CdS played a critical role in improving the photocatalytic activity. Moreover, the growth mechanisms of CdS with various morphologies were investigated and proposed in detail.

In this work, we develop a vapor transport deposition (VTD) technology to prepare CdS film with tetragonal phase for the first time, and then construct a CdS/Sb 2 Se 3 planar heterojunction by full VTD tactics. Compared with the CdS synthesized by traditional chemical bath deposition (CBD), the CdS-VTD has superior crystalline, conductivity and lower Urbach energy, which also induces the growth orientation of Sb 2 Se 3 and has a favorable energy level matching structure with Sb 2 Se 3 . With the improved carrier transport efficiency, finally, the built carbon-based Sb 2 Se 3 device delivers an efficiency of 4.91%, obviously improved by 15.8% than Sb 2 Se 3 device with CdS-CBD (4.24%), which is the champion Sb 2 Se 3 device with full VTD process and pave a successive way for the construction of CdS/Sb 2 Se 3 planar heterojunction.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was often used as a composite fiber matrix due to its good spinning characteristics. Herein, photoluminescent quantum dot-doped nanofibers with tunable diameters were successfully prepared using electrospinning by adding CdSe/CdS quantum dots (QDs) in PAN spinning solution. The morphology and structure of CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the mechanical and photoluminescent properties of CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers were investigated. Stable photoluminescent nanofibers were obtained owning to the improved stability of photoluminescent property of CdSe/CdS QDs in the PAN nanofiber. The stable photoluminescent CdSe/CdS-PAN nanofibers might be used for anti-fake labels, ultraviolet sensors, smart textiles and optoelectronic devices.

Compositional regulation and modification of CdS are effective strategies to enhance its photocatalytic activity and stability. Herein, a series of MoS 2 modified Co 0.2 Cd 0.8 S nanorods (CCS) was synthesized by a hydrothermal method and used for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) under visible light irradiation. The results indicated that the HER activity and stability of CdS could be substantially improved by the introduction of Co 2+ into CdS lattice, which can accelerate the separation of photoinduced charge carriers and avoid the formation of high oxidation power holes (h + ) due to the upward shift of the valence band edge. The HER performance of CCS could be further enhanced by the decoration of MoS 2 nanosheets. CCS loaded with 5% MoS 2 (wt%) showed the highest activity (2835.6 μmol·g −1 ·h −1 ), which is about 8.9 and 1.6 times higher than that of CdS and CCS. The type II heterojunction formed between CCS and the intimately contacted MoS 2 accounts for the improvement as MoS 2 can serve as trapping centers for photoinduced electrons (e − ) and active sites for HER. This work demonstrated that the activity and the stability of CdS for photocatalytic HER could be boosted by a consolidation of CoS with the host CdS to form a solid solution and a further decoration with low-cost MoS 2 cocatalyst.

H 2 S is a crucial endogenous gaseous signaling molecule involved in various metabolic pathways and is associated with the biological response to heavy metal stress. The biomineralization of CdS serves as a critical mechanism for responding to cadmium stress and removing Cd 2+ in different organisms. CdS is also a widely utilized semiconductor material for the photocatalytic degradation of dyes. In this study, we found that cysteine synthetase 1 (TtCsa1) is involved in CdS formation under cadmium stress in Tetrahymena thermophila . TtCsa1 also catalyzed CdS formation in vitro, and the synthesized CdS material exhibited controllable particle size and photoluminescence. Concurrently, cysteine and glutathione functioned as capping agents to regulate CdS particle size. The biosynthetically produced CdS degraded 90 % of methylene blue under UV light. Furthermore, CdS-ZnS nanocomposites were synthesized by adding Zn 2+ into the CdS biosynthetic system, which decreased the size of CdS particles and increased the degradation rate of methylene blue. The results indicate that the CdS biosynthesized by TtCsa1 from Tetrahymena thermophila is effective in the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes.

In this work, the effect of core size on the fluorescence emission properties of CdTe@CdS core@shell quantum dots was investigated under the condition of different shell thickness and pH values. Both CdTe and CdTe@CdS core@shell QDs were synthesized in aqueous phase by a simple method, whose optical features were characterized by absorption and fluorescence spectra . High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were utilized to study the structure and composition of the as-prepared QDs. We can conclude that a smaller initial core exhibits a greater potential for optimizing both fluorescence intensity enhancement and red shift. What's more, there is an optimal shell thickness for the strongest fluorescence intensity while a thicker shell contributes to a larger fluorescence red shift. The optimal pH value is 10.5 for the fluorescence intensity enhancement of the core@shell QDs and a higher pH value is an advantage to expedite the growth rate of CdS shell.
