Photocatalytic H2 production from water splitting is a promising candidate for solving the increasing energy crisis and environmental issues. Herein we report a novel g-C3N4/AgInS S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst for water splitting into stoichiometric H2 and H2O2 under visible light. The catalyst was prepared by depositing 3D bimetallic sulfide (AgInS) nanotubes onto 2D g-C3N4 nanosheets. Owing to the special 3D-on-2D configuration, the photogenerated carriers could be rapidly transferred and effectively separated through the abundant interfacial heterostructures to avoid recombination, and therefore excellent performance for visible light-driven water splitting could be obtained, with a 24-h H2 evolution rate up to 237 µmol g−1 h−1. Furthermore, suitable band alignment enables simultaneous H2 and H2O2 production in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. H2 and H2O2 were evolved on the conduction band of g-C3N4 and on the valance band of AgInS, respectively. The novel 3D-on-2D configuration for heterojunction construction proposed in this work provided alternative research ideas toward photocatalytic reaction.
