Visible light-driven hydrogen production by water splitting has attracted much attention because of its advantages of low cost, relative safety, and environmental friendliness. In this paper, a series of Ni-MOF-74 materials, Ni-MOF-74(X), with different morphologies and structures were synthesized b...
