Interfacial Charge Transfer Controls Plasmon-Enhanced Catalysis in DNA-Coated Gold Nanorods

Abstract The ultrafast recombination of plasmon-generated hot carriers (within ∼100 fs) has long prevented their productive use in catalysis. Here, we show that a DNA corona coated on gold nanorods (AuNRs) overcomes this barrier through chemical interface damping (CID): hot elect...
