Activated Carbon Anchoring Site Enrichment Through B and N Codoping for Boosting Bi2Mo2.5(S,O)10 Oxysulfide Catalyst Stability and Visible‐Light‐Driven Hydrogen Evolution

Abstract Boron and nitrogen can enter the carbon lattice and provide structural disorder, porous structure, and active sites for better catalyst dispersions and activity. Herein, Bi 2 Mo 2.5 (S,O) 10 oxysulfide (BiMoOS) anchored on unmodified and surface‐modified activated carbon (AC) via B and N doping is synthesized for efficient PHER, aiming that B and N doping into carbon framework can modify the surface textural features which act as anchoring sites for the host Bi 2 Mo 2.5 (S,O) 10 and boost its photocatalytic activity by increasing specific surface area via preventing aggregation through a uniform distribution. Thus, the BiMoOS@B─N─AC catalyst achieved excellent stability and PHER performance (564.2 µmol h −1 H 2 under visible light). The doped B and N in AC create structural disorder/defects, active sites and induce electron delocalization in B─N─AC, used as the anchoring sites for BiMoOS catalysts and stimulate the adsorption and activation kinetics of the H 2 O molecules, and also provide a highly conductive network that enhances charge transport and stability of BiMoOS@B─N─AC. With the advantages of the modified B─N─AC, the oxygen vacancy‐anchored BiMoOS exhibited superb PHER. Hence, B and N co‐doping into the carbon lattice is a promising approach to enriching the anchoring site for boosting metallic nanocatalyst stability and catalytic performance.
