Abstract

A hydrophobized metal–organic framework (MOF) of MIL-101(Cr) (M101) was elaborately constructed to encapsulate CdS quantum dots (QDs). The customized hydrophobic MOF shell shielded the CdS QDs from exposure to moisture, and simultaneously quenched the holes of CdS through Z-scheme charge transfer, thus inhibiting CdS photocorrosion for efficient sunlight-driven aerobic oxidation.
