Distinguishing thermal from non-thermal ("hot") carries in illuminated molecular junctions
Yonatan Dubi, Ieng-Wai Un, Yonatan Sivan
The search for the signature of non-thermal (so-called ``hot'') electrons in illuminated plasmonic nanostructures requires a detailed understanding of the non-equilibrium electron…
Theory of Non-equilibrium "Hot" Carriers in Direct Band-gap Semiconductors Under Continuous Illumination
Subhajit Sarkar, Ieng-Wai Un, Yonatan Sivan +1
The interplay between the illuminated excitation of carriers and subsequent thermalization and recombination leads to the formation of non-equilibrium distributions for the "hot" c…
The photothermal nonlinearity in plasmon-assisted photocatalysis
Ieng-Wai Un, Yonatan Dubi, Yonatan Sivan
Understanding the intricate relation between illumination and temperature in metallic nano-particles is crucial for elucidating the role of illumination in various physical process…
Matters Arising in -- "Plasmon-driven carbon-fluorine (C(sp^)-F) bond activation with mechanistic insights into hot-carrier-mediated pathways"
Yonatan Dubi, Ieng Wai Un, Joshua H. Baraban +1
In a recent paper~[Nature Catalysis 3, 573 (2020)], Robatjazi {\em et al.} demonstrate hydrodefluorination on Al nanocrystals decorated by Pd islands under illumination and under e…
The role of heat generation and fluid flow in plasmon-enhanced reduction-oxidation reactions
Ieng Wai Un, Yonatan Sivan
Recently, we have shown that thermal effects play a crucial role in speeding up the rate of bond-dissociation reactions. This was done by applying a simple temperature-shifted Arrh…
