Three-dimensional CdS-titanate composite nanomaterials for enhanced visible-light-driven hydrogen evolution

3D Hierarchical echinus-like titanate spheres (HETSs), serving as the supporting material for CdS nanoparticles, are synthesized via a fast one-step hydrothermal method. The obtained 3D CdS–HETS composite materials show enhanced H2 generation under visible light irradiation.
