| Research Abstract |
Nanostructure of gold and silver can couple with light in the visible to near-infrared region, and generates strong electric fields at specified sites that are called hot-sites. Such hot-sites are expected to be applied to the fields of high-performance photoenergy conversion. In this project, we plan to create outstanding tailormade hot-site nanostructures and optimize for photochemical events of immobilized organic molecules.Further, we realize highly-efficient photoinduced electron- and energy-transfer reactions using those nanostructures, and will propose applicability of photon-controlling nanostructure materials for next generation photonics.
