Heterogenous catalysis mediated by plasmon heating

Demetri Psaltis, James Adleman

We introduce a new method for performing and miniaturizing many types of heterogeneous catalysis involving nanoparticles. The method makes use of the plasmon resonance present in nanoscale metal catalysts to provide the necessary heat of reaction when illu ...

Generation of OH radicals at palladium oxide nanoparticle modified electrodes, and scavenging by fluorescent probes and antioxidants

Hubert Girault, Junqiu Liu

The reduction of palladium oxide nanoparticles in the presence of hydrogen peroxide or dissolved oxygen gives rise to a catalytic reduction current dependent on the hydrogen peroxide concentration or the oxygen concentration. Using terephthalic acid as an ...

Liquid dynamics in ZrO2 nanoporous films

Majed Chergui, Frank van Mourik, Erwin Portuondo Campa

Time-resolved Optical Kerr Effect (OKE) measurements were used to det. the orientational dynamics of water and acetonitrile in the bulk and in pores of ZrO2 nanostructured films. The expts. were performed with a home-built OKE microscope, capable of provid ...

A strategy for the synthesis of transition-metal nanoparticles and their transfer between liquid phases

Paul Joseph Dyson, Zhaofu Fei, Wee Han Ang, Dongbin Zhao

Nanoparticles can be stabilized by an ionic liq. polymer (ILP) composed of imidazolium units incorporating a hydrophobic benzyl group. The resulting gold, platinum, and palladium nanoparticles can be efficiently transferred from water to ionic liqs. by exc ...
