In this study, we observed the enhanced photocatalytic activity of a few-layer WS<sub>2</sub>/ZnO (WZ) heterostructure toward dye degradation and H<sub>2</sub> production. The few-layer WS<sub>2</sub> acted as a co-catalyst that separated photogenerated electron/hole pairs and provided active sites for reactions, leading to the rate of photocatalytic H<sub>2</sub> production of WZ being 35% greater than that over the bare ZnO nanoparticles. Moreover, vortex-stirring accelerated the mass-transfer ...[more]
