Our paper “Wavelength-Dependent Bifunctional Plasmonic Photocatalysis in Au/Chalcopyrite Hybrid Nanostructures” is published on ACS Nano! In this paper, we collaborated with Prof. Allison Dennis’ group and designed a hybrid plasmonic photocatalyst for wavelength-controlled charge carrier transport and bifunctional photocatalysis of both half reactions of water splitting. This work is meaningful for acquiring further understanding on the quasistatic plasmon resonance in semiconductor nanocrystals, and for achieving efficient light energy harvesting and energy conversion.
