Plasmon-induced photoelectrochemistry at metal nanoparticles supported on nanoporous TiO2.
Nanoporous TiO(2) films loaded with gold and silver nanoparticles exhibit negative potential changes and anodic currents in response to visible light irradiation, so that the films would potentially be applicable to inexpensive photovoltaic cells, photocatalysts and simple plasmon sensors.
متن کاملRoom-Temperature Dynamics of Vanishing Copper Nanoparticles Supported on Silica.
In heterogeneous catalysis, a nanoparticle (NP) system has immediate chemical surroundings with which its interaction needs to be considered, as nanoparticles are typically loaded onto certain supports. Beyond what is known about these interactions, dynamic atomic interactions between the nanoparticle and support could result from the increased energetics at the nanoscale. Here, we show that th...
متن کاملAlumina-supported vanadium nanoparticles: structural characterization and CO adsorption properties.
Alumina-supported vanadium particles were prepared under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions and characterized with respect to their structural and CO adsorption properties. As supporting oxide, we used a thin, well-ordered alumina film grown on NiAl(110). This allows the application of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRAS), and X-ray photoelectro...
متن کاملSize-Dependent Surface Plasmon Dynamics in Metal Nanoparticles
We study the effect of Coulomb correlations on the ultrafast optical dynamics of small metal particles. We demonstrate that a surface-induced dynamical screening of the electron-electron interactions leads to quasiparticle scattering with collective surface excitations. In noble-metal nanoparticles, it results in an interband resonant scattering of d-holes with surface plasmons. We show that th...
متن کاملOn the stability and structural dynamics of metal nanowires
This article presents a brief review of the nanoscale free-electron model, which provides a continuum description of metal nanostructures. It is argued that surface and quantum-size effects are the two dominant factors in the energetics of metal nanowires, and that much of the phenomenology of nanowire stability and structural dynamics can be understood based on the interplay of these two compe...
