Abstract

A porous semiconductor photocatalyst, γ-In2Se3, was first synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal-calcining process. It was shown that the porous γ-In2Se3 tetragons have superior photocatalytic activity for water splitting over γ-In 2Se3 nanoparticles and commercial counterparts, which might be attributed to the combined effect of stronger UV light absorption properties and a porous structure.
