Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201570264-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Well‐designed hetero‐nanostructural plasmonic photocatalysts with a multichannel sensitization effect on the charge‐carrier dynamics process are developed by B. Dong and co‐workers, as described on page 5906. The rational combination of the semiconductor heterojunction effect and a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) coupling effect of the plasmonic dimers, as well as the nanostructural property of electrospun nanofibers, results in a remarkable enhancement in the efficiency of solar to fuels conversion. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgkhm1fg1f" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
