Graphical Abstract

Two sorts of MoS2: A single-layer, metallic form of MoS2 (1T-MoS2) and a nanocomposite of a second form of MoS2 (few-layer 2H-MoS2) with heavily nitrogenated reduced graphene oxide (NRGO; N content ca. 15 %) show outstanding performance in the production of H2 under visible-light illumination.
