The best use of photogenerated electrons and holes is crucial to boosting photocatalytic activity. Herein, a bifunctional dual‐cocatalyst‐modified photocatalyst is constructed based on CdS/MoO2/MoS2 hollow spheres for hydrogen evolution coupled with selective pyruvic acid (PA) production from lactic...
