Abstract
We report the construction of highly efficient In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>@g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> heterostructures with intimate contact for photocatalytic H<sub>2</sub> production through decoration of g-C<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> ultrathin nanosheets on the surface of MOF-derived hexagonal In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> microrods.
