We demonstrate the multiple plasmonic effect on the photocurrent properties of photoanodes containing Ag or Au nanoparticles (NPs) loaded onto titanium dioxide film (Ag-TiO2 or Au-TiO2) on Au grating surfaces. Ag-TiO2 or Au-TiO2 nanocomposite particles are prepared by a flame spray pyrolysis route....
