A porous SnO2 nanosheets/TiO2/CdS quantum dots (SnO2 NSs/TiO2/CdS QDs) sandwich structure has been designed and fabricated as a “host-guest” photoanode for efficient solar water splitting applications. In this novel photoanode design, the highly porous SnO2 NSs serve as the host skeleton for efficie...
