Novel composite photocatalysts consisting of petal-like cadmium sulphide (CdS) nanoparticles and varying amounts of exfoliated sulfur-doped carbon nitride (SCN) were successfully prepared. The as-obtained materials were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction,...
