Supported black phosphorus nanosheets as hydrogen-evolving photocatalyst achieving 5.4% energy conversion efficiency at 353 KSupported black phosphorus nanosheets as hydrogen-evolving photocatalyst achieving 5.4% energy conversion efficiency at 353 K, Published online: 11 April 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-03737-4In order to displace fossil fuel technologies, it is crucial to develop efficient solar-to-fuel conversion materials using abundant, cheap elements. Here, the authors prepare few-layer black phosphorous with amorphous cobalt phosphide and produce hydrogen gas with light at high efficiencies.
