Ga‐on‐In Substitution with Zn Vacancies in Zn3In2S6 Induces Electron–Hole Asymmetry and In─O Bond Weakening for Coupled Two‐Electron Oxygen Reduction and H2O2 Stabilization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ga‐on‐In substitution coupled with Zn vacancies in Zn3In2S6 creates a dopantdefect synergy that weakens InO bonding and induces electronhole asymmetry. The resulting spatial charge separation directs the two‐electron oxygen reduction pathway, enabling efficient artificial photosynthesis of H2O2 with a production rate of 187.8 µmol g−1 min−1 ...
