Photochemical hydrogen production from water catalyzed by CdTe quantum dots/molecular cobalt catalyst hybrid systems

• A hybrid system with a coordinative interaction between a cobalt complex of a N2S2-tetradentate ligand and CdTe quantum dots displayed a high activity (initial TOF 850 h(-1)) and improved stability (TON 1.44 x 10(4) based on catalyst over 30 h) for the photochemical H-2 generation from water, with a quantum efficiency of 5.32% at 400 nm.
