Understanding Hot-Electron Generation and Plasmon Relaxation in Metal Nanocrystals: Quantum and Classical Mechanisms
Lucas V. Besteiro, Xiang-Tian Kong, Zhiming Wang +2
Generation of energetic (hot) electrons is an intrinsic property of any plasmonic nanostructure under illumination. Simultaneously, a striking advantage of metal nanocrystals over…
Plasmonic Nanostars with Hot Spots for Efficient Generation of Hot Electrons under Solar Illumination
Xiang-Tian Kong, Zhiming Wang, Alexander O. Govorov
Nanostars (NSTs) are spiky nanocrystals with plasmonic hot spots. In this study, we show that strong electromagnetic fields localized in the nanostar tips are able to generate larg…
Experimental observation of polarization-dependent ultrafast carrier dynamics in multi-layer graphene
Xiao-Qing Yan, Zhi-Bo Liu, Jun Yao +6
Polarization characteristic of ultrafast carrier dynamics in multi-layer CVD-grown graphene is probed with tilted beams (with respected to the graphene plane). The graphene ultrafa…
