| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Study on reaction mechanism of plasmonic photo conversion electrode system utilizing localized enhanced photo field was conducted. Using scanning electron microscopy, poly-pyrrole formation on Titanium dioxide electrode (TiO2) with Au nano structures induced by the localized enhanced photo field was evaluated to identify the reaction site. The results showed that the reaction site is located around the enhanced photo field, and the characteristics of the reactivity could be elucidated.
Plasmonic enhancement on the photoelectrochemial response was also studied using PbS quantum dots (PbS-QDs) on TiO2 electrode with Au nanoparticles (Au-NPs). Enhanced photo-electrochemical response of Q-PbS was observed at relatively wide wavelength region between visible and near infrared. Furthermore, a coating TiO2 layer to PBs-QDs/Au-NPs electrode found the enhancement of photo conversion efficiency, suggesting the inhabitation of electron quenching effect.
