Abstract With the decrease of non-renewable energy resources such as oil, coal and natural gas and the environmental pollution problem caused by them, the utilization of new alternatives to fossil fuels deserves intense attention. Hydrogen is a clean, renewable fuel that has the great potential to replace fossil fuels in the future. It is an efficient way to convert solar energy into hydrogen energy by photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. However, most of the photocatalysts for hydrogen production still have problems such as low utilization of solar energy and easy recombination of photogenerated electrons and hole pairs, which leads to lower hydrogen production efficiency, thereby seriously restricting the practical application of photocatalysts. Therefore, the development of photocatalysts with low cost, environmental friendliness, visible light response and good performance has become the focus of research on photocatalytic hydrogen production. Recent photocatalysts for hydrogen production mainly include metal oxides, metal sulfides, metal nitrogen (nitrogen and oxygen) compounds, graphite carbonitrides and novel heterostructure photocatalysts. Titanium dioxide, as a conventional photocatalyst for hydrogen production, has been studied. Metal sulfides exhibit good photocatalytic activity in hydrogen production due to their narrow band gap and good band gap positions, and the research mainly focuses on CdS, ZnS and their solid solutions. Metal nitrogen (nitrogen and oxygen) compounds have ideal visible full-hydrolysis energy band structure, which needs to be modified to show full-hydrolysis activity. Graphite carbonitride is a new type of non-metallic visible-light photocatalyst, which has been attracted widespread attention for its great potential in hydrogen production. In addition, the construction of binary or multicomponent heterostructure composite photocatalysts which can efficiently separate photogenerated carriers by semiconductor composite has also been extensively studied. In this review, according to the research status of photocatalysts for hydrogen production at home and abroad in recent years, the research progress of photocatalysts was reviewed. The characteristics and research progress of each type of photocatalysts were summarized, and the preparation process and modification strategy of some photocatalysts were analyzed. Finally, the existing problems of photocatalysts were put forward and the future research prospects are also suggested, and is expected to provide reference for the design and preparation of efficient and stable photocatalytic materials.
