Abstract:
An efficient hydroxyl-rich carbon quantum dot-integrated TiO2 nanofiber system is developed for photothermal-assisted hydrogen production from seawater. Spatially distributed CQDs enable efficient heat utilization while the hydroxyl-rich surface maintains a proton-accessible interface for stable hydrogen production.
