On the sunny side : A new photocatalyst effects hydrogen evolution from an aqueous solution containing S 2− and SO 3 2− ions. The photocatalyst is a Ru‐loaded solid solution of ZnS–CuInS 2 –AgInS 2 and works in visible light, e. g. under simulated solar irradiation ( λ ≥420 nm; see picture: CB conducting band, VB valence band).
