Hierarchical CdMoO nanowire-graphene composite for photocatalytic hydrogen generation under natural sunlight.

Herein, a facile solvothermal technique for the synthesis of a CdMoO/graphene composite photocatalyst is reported. Graphene oxide (GO) was synthesised by an improved Hummers' method and was further used for the synthesis of graphene GO reduction and the formation of a CdMoO nanowire/graphene composite. The structural phase formation of tetragonal CdMoO was confirmed from X-ray diffraction measurements.
