Carbon-doped SnS₂ (SnS₂-C) metal dichalcogenide nanostructure has been synthesized using a hydrothermal technique, which exhibits a highly active and selective photocatalytic conversion of CO₂ to hydrocarbons under visible-light, attaining a photochemical quantum efficiency of above 0.7%. The SnS₂ -C photocatalyst represents an important contribution towards high quantum efficiency artificial photosynthesis based on gas phase photocatalytic CO₂ reduction under visible light.
