Iron group transition metal phosphides (TMPs, M= Fe, Co, Ni) have been considered as promising noble-metal-free cocatalysts for the photocatalytic hydrogen (H2) generation. However, the impact on the H2generation activity in correlation with the types of metal in TMPs still remains unresolved. In this paper, to investigate the effect of metal phosphides with different metal on photocatalytic H2generation, three types of iron group transition metal phosphides (M2P, M=Fe, Co, and Ni) nanoparticles were used as the cocatalysts of sulfur doped g-C3N4(Ssingle bondCN) for the photocatalytic H2generation. By comparing three types of M2P/Ssingle bondCN, the optimum cocatalyst of Ni2P hasca.22.7 times that of the pristine Ssingle bondCN under the same condition. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra, photoelectrochemical characterization and DFT calculations confirmed the enhanced photo-induced charge transfer and band separation when Ssingle bondCN was integrated with the Ni2P.
