Localized photodeposition of catalysts using nanophotonic resonances in silicon photocathodes

Nanostructured semiconductors feature resonant optical modes that confine light absorption in specific areas called “hot spots”. These areas can be used for localized extraction of the photogenerated charges, which in turn could drive chemical reactions for synthesis of catalytic materials. In this...
