Theoretical design of a Z-scheme photocatalyst for water splitting with excellent catalytic performance: ZnTe/ZrS <sub>2</sub> heterojunction
BIEF & band bending force exclusive path 2 recombination, proving Z-scheme. This boosts carrier separation while preserving strong redox power. ZnTe side is HER site, ZrS 2 OER site. ZnTe/ZrS 2 heterojunction achieves 14.296% STH efficiency.
