La2CuFeO6 nanofibers photocatalytic material was successfully prepared by electrospinning. La2CuFeO6 nanofibers with an average diameter of 170 nm, which were connected to each other by rhombic La2CuFeO6 nanoparticles, had stable one-dimensional structure. Through the excitation of ultraviolet light and oxalic acid coupling, the La2CuFeO6 nanofibers as the catalyst for water-splitting reaction producing hydrogen, the average hydrogen production rate is 760.76μmol h-1· g-1.
