Abstract

Cadmium sulfide was popularly utilized as a light harvesting material for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, however, the drawback of poor durability limits its practical application. Herein, we show that a catalytically active and chemically inert cadmium indium sulfide (CdIn <subscript>2</subscript> S <subscript>4</subscript> ) can improve the stability and even photocurrent of a CdS photoelectrode.
