Discerning between thermal and electronic effects in plasmonenhanced organic reactions
Ivan Bordacchini
Abstract:Since the pioneering work of Fujishima and Honda on titanium dioxide, TiO2, for the electrochemical photolysis of water under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, semiconductor-based photocatalysis and photovoltaics have become a rapidly growing field of investigation.
However, UV light accounts for only 4% of the solar spectrum, whereas the visible light represents 42% of the total solar radiation. Therefore, the scientific community focused their efforts on the optimization and extension of the absorption sp… Show more
