MoS₂/ZnIn₂S₄ composites with MoS₂ anchored on the surface of ZnIn₂S₄ microspheres were synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal process. The obtained samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance absorption spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and photoelectrochemical tests. The influence of the loading of MoS₂ on the photocatalytic H₂ evolution activity was investigated using lactic acid as a sacrificial reagent. A H₂ evolution rate of 343 μmol/h was achieved under visible light irradiation over the 1 wt% MoS₂/ZnIn₂S₄ composite, corresponding to an apparent quantum efficiency of about 3.85% at 420 nm monochromatic light. The marked improvement of the photocatalytic H₂ evolution activity compared with ZnIn₂S₄ can be ascribed to efficient transfer and separation of photogenerated charge carriers and facilitation of the photocatalytic H₂ evolution reaction at the MoS₂ active sites.
