Mild‐mannered catalyst : A novel procedure to load a MoS 2 co‐catalyst onto the surface of silicon under mild‐conditions (room temperature, atmospheric pressure, aqueous solution) by a photo‐assisted electrodeposition process employing commercially available precursors is reported. The obtained Si‐NW@MoS 2 photocathode showed similar catalytic activity for light‐driven H 2 generation compared with a Si‐NW@Pt photocathode (see scheme).
