Designing a semiconductor‐based heterostructure photocatalyst for achieving the efficient separation of photogenerated electron‐hole pairs is highly important for enhancing H2 releasing photocatalysis. Here, a new class of Ni1−xCoxSe2–C/ZnIn2S4 hierarchical nanocages with abundant and compact ZnIn2S4 nanosheets/Ni1−xCoxSe2C nanosheets 2D/2D hetero–interfaces, is designed and synthesized. The constructed heterostructure photocatalyst exposes rich hetero‐junctions, supplying the broad and short transfer paths for charge carriers. The close contacts of these two kinds of nanosheets induce a strong interaction between ZnIn2S4 and Ni1−xCoxSe2C, improving the separation and transfer of photo‐generated electron‐hole pairs. As a consequence, the distinctive Ni1−xCoxSe2C/ZnIn2S4 hierarchical nanocages without using additional noble‐metal cocatalysts, display remarkable H2‐relaesing photocatalytic activity with a rate of 5.10 mmol g−1 h−1 under visible light irradiation, which is 6.2 and 30 times higher than those of fresh ZnIn2S4 nanosheets and bare Ni1−xCoxSe2C nanocages, respectively. Spectroscopic characterizations and theory calculations reveal that the strong interaction between ZnIn2S4 and Ni1−xCoxSe2C 2D/2D hetero‐interfaces can powerfully promote the separation of photo‐generated charge carriers and the electrons transfer from ZnIn2S4 to Ni1−xCoxSe2C.
A simulation approach to measuring supply chain performance is evaluated which incorporates order release theory. Within manufacturing a number of order release mechanisms have been developed. The importance of order release is first examined and its applicability to monitoring the performance of the supply chain is proposed. A simulation model of a typical, single channel logistics network was developed. Using the simulation model, each of the order release mechanisms was assessed and close agreement was obtained with the work of previous researchers. A new order release approach is proposed which is found to be superior to those analysed previously and should lead to improved supply chain performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
