Investigation of localized surface plasmon/grating-coupled surface plasmon enhanced photocurrent in TiO<inf>2</inf>thin films
We fabricated plasmonic gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-TiO 2 nanocomposite films and measured the photocurrent that originates from the water-splitting reaction catalyzed by the AuNP-TiO 2 nanocomposite photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) electrode. The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of the gold nanop...
