In this study, visible-light-responsive carbon dots (CDs)/ZnIn2S4@MIL-88A (C/ZI@ML) photocatalysts were successfully prepared through in situ loading CDs and ZnIn2S4 nanosheets on MIL-88A(Fe) to form a ternary heterojunction. The detailed characterization indicated that the two-dimensional ZnIn2S4 nanosheets were uniformly coated on the surface of MIL-88A(Fe), and ZnIn2S4/MIL-88A(Fe) exhibited enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production performance (1259.63 µmol h-1 g-1) compared to that of pristine MIL-88A(Fe) and ZnIn2S4 under visible light illumination. After introduction of CDs into ZnIn2S4/MIL-88A(Fe), the C/ZI@ML catalyst remarkably enhanced the photocatalytic activity and the hydrogen evolution rate of 1C/ZI@ML was up to 3609.23 µmol g-1 h-1. The photoinduced charge carriers of C/ZI@ML can be efficiently separated and migrated because of the close contacted interface, synergistic effect, and suitable band structure. In combination with photoelectrochemical experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra, a possible photocatalytic mechanism over C/ZI@ML was proposed. This work demonstrated a facile preparation method for fabricating efficient visible-light-driven heterojunction photocatalysts.
