Ultrafast optical microscopy, generally employed by incorporating ultrafast laser pulses into
microscopes, can provide spatially resolved mechanistic insight into scientific problems …

Conspectus As renewable energy sources are either intermittent in nature or remote in
location, develo** cost-effective, sustainable, modular systems and technologies to store …

Plasmon-mediated photocatalytic water splitting has attracted extensive attention due to its
bright future in using visible light, but the enhancement mechanism is still unclear, and the …

Plasmon‐induced chemical reaction is an emerging field but its development faces huge
challenges because of low quantum efficiency. Herein, we report that the solar energy …

The boundary between molecular and metallic gold nanoclusters is of special interest. The
difficulty in obtaining atomically precise nanoclusters larger than 2 nm limits the …

Transition metal nitrides have recently gained attention in the fields of plasmonics, plasmon‐
enhanced photocatalysis, photothermal applications, and nonlinear optics because of their …

We report on a pump wavelength-dependent study of electron–phonon relaxation in
colloidal solutions of isolated gold nanospheres and nanorods. We varied the pump …

Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is essentially a collective oscillation of free
electrons in nanostructured metals. Interband excitation may also produce conduction-band …

Understanding the dynamics of “hot”, highly energetic electrons resulting from nonradiative
plasmon decay is crucial for optimizing applications in photocatalysis and energy …

Abstract Heterostructured Au/CuS nanocrystals (NCs) exhibit localized surface plasmon
resonance (LSPR) centered at two different wavelengths (551 and 1051 nm) with a slight …
