Building heterojunctions is a promising strategy for the achievement of highly efficient photocatalysis. Herein, a novel SnIn4S8@ZnO Z-scheme heterostructure with a tight contact interface was successfully constructed using a convenient two-step hydrothermal approach. The phase composition, morphology, specific surface area, as well as photophysical characteristics of SnIn4S8@ZnO were investigated through a series of characterization methods, respectively. Methylene blue (MB) was chosen as the target contaminant for photocatalytic degradation. In addition, the degradation process was fitted wi...
