Here, graphdiyne(GDY) was prepared and introduced into bimetallic sulfide Co 1.62 Mo 6 S 8 (CMS) by electrostatic self-assembly method. By fluorescence spectra and electrochemistry, it is observed that the transmission of photo-generated charge carriers in the GDY/CMS composite catalyst was availably regulated, and it was favorable for photocatalytic H 2 evolution. In situ XPS tests show that the charge transfer mechanism between GDY/CMS is consistent with that described by the S-scheme heterojunction. The test results of photocatalytic hydrogen production show that the GDY/CMS composite catalyst has outstanding H 2 evolution performance. The maximum hydrogen yield of GDY/CMS reached 3956.8 μmol g−1, which was 8 times that of GDY. This is because the S-scheme heterojunction is formed between the two catalysts, successfully separating the photo-generated charge carriers and creating more favorable conditions for photogenerated charger transfer. This work indicates that introducing carbon materials into bimetallic sulfides has great application prospects in photocatalysis. • The GDY/CMS S-scheme heterojunction is constructed. • The composite catalyst has very excellent hydrogen production performance. • The separation of photogenerated carrier is effectively promoted.
