Rational Design of CdS QDs/CeO2 Nanocube S‐Scheme Heterojunctions for Highly Efficient C2H4 Scavenging in Fresh Produce Preservation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A novel S‐scheme heterojunction of CdS quantum dots on CeO2 nanocubes was designed to enhance charge separation and oxygen activation for efficient photocatalytic ethylene removal. The optimized composite achieved complete C2H4 degradation within 4 min under low‐intensity visible light, with a rate constant of 1.72 min−1. Mechanistic analysis confirmed
