(ZnS)0.4¬(AgInS2)0.6 nanocrystals (NCs) capped by S2- ions exhibit interesting electronic properties, absorbing visible light along with a suitable band alignment as well as properties such as high surface area providing active reaction sites for photocatalytic H2 evolution. A high activity of 5.0 mmol g-1 h-1 is achieved using non-toxic (ZnS)0.4¬(AgInS2)0.6 NCs as photocatalysts without the need of a noble metal co-catalyst.
