Hot carrier multiplication in plasmonic photocatalysis
Our paper on “Hot Carrier multiplication in plasmonic photocatalysis” has been published in PNAS.
In this work, we demonstrate photocatalytic HD exchange reaction on the surface of small copper nanoparticles is primarily driven by plasmon-mediated “hot” electrons with unusually high efficiencies and an external quantum yield that exceeds 100% under high illumination intensities.
