A type of heavy‐metal‐free metal‐semiconductor Au‐ZnSe hybrid nanorod is reported by Shaobin Wang, Yunguo Li, Guohua Jia, and co‐workers in article number 1902231. Au particles grow nonepitaxially on the end facets of wurtzite ZnSe nanorods producing Au‐tipped ZnSe hybrid nanorods, which can be used as non‐toxic and eco‐friendly catalysts for hydrogen production through water splitting.
For the first time, colloidal gold (Au)–ZnSe hybrid nanorods (NRs) with controlled size and location of Au domains are synthesized and used for hydrogen production by photocatalytic water splitting. Au tips are found to grow on the apices of ZnSe NRs nonepitaxially to form an interface with no preference of orientation between Au(111) and ZnSe(001). Density functional theory calculations reveal that...
