Abstract:Hot-carrier generation (HCG) through plasmons in nanoscale metals is a crucial element for arguing artificial photosynthesis and photocurrent. The strategic design of nanoscale metals can enhance HCG. A recent study introduced the Au nanoparticle (NP) array/TiO 2 / Au film (ATA) structure, generating Fabry-Peŕot "cavity" (FP cavity) modes. Because of the coherent coupling between the plasmons in the NPs via the FP cavity modes and the electromagnetic interactions strengthened by the cavity effect, energy has b… Show more
