CdS nanoparticle‐decorated Cd nanosheets (CdS NP/Cd NSs) are successfully fabricated for the first time via a facile oxidation–sulfurization treatment of Cd nanosheets. Due to the high electrical conductivity and visible light reflectivity of Cd nanosheets, the obtained CdS NP/Cd NSs heterostructures show significantly enhanced activities for visible light‐driven photocatalytic H 2 production compared to other reference CdS photocatalysts.
