Photocathodic currents of ITO/Au/TiO2 electrodes based on plasmon-induced charge separation were enhanced by applying negative potentials, and the enhancement factor was increased as the particle size was decreased.

The internal quantum efficiency of plasmon-induced charge separation of a Au nanoparticle array on TiO2 without interparticle coupling increases with decreasing particle size. The efficiency is also improved by the enhancement of a plasmonic interface mode.

The deagglomeration of titanium-dioxide powder in water suspension performed in a stirring tank was investigated. Owing to the widespread applications of the deagglomeration process and titanium dioxide powder, new, more efficient devices and methods of predicting the process result are highly needed. A brief literature review of the application process, the device used, and process mechanism is presented herein. In the experiments, deagglomeration of the titanium dioxide suspension was performed. The change in particle size distribution in time was investigated for different impeller geometries and rotational speeds. The modification of impeller geometry allowed the improvement of the process of solid particle breakage. In the modelling part, numerical simulations of the chosen impeller geometries were performed using computational-fluid-dynamics (CFD) methods whereby the flow field, hydrodynamic stresses, and other useful parameters were calculated. Finally, based on the simulation results, the population-balance with a mechanistic model of suspension flow was developed. Model predictions of the change in particle size showed good agreement with the experimental data. Using the presented method in the process design allowed the prediction of the product size and the comparison of the efficiency of different impeller geometries.

Plasmonic Au nanoparticles inject electrons into TiO2 and reduce water to hydrogen at a Pt cathode. Positive charges left in the Au nanoparticles are extracted by NiO and used for methanol oxidation.
