Abstract
Improved photocatalysis is provided for chemical reactions involving hydrogen in two component plasmon-catalyst nanoparticles. The main idea of this work is to configure the optical illumination of the nano-articles to suppress formation of an undesirable hydride phase in the nanoparticles. This idea is broadly applicable to any chemical reaction involving hydrogen. Specific examples considered experimentally in this work are acetylene hydrogenation to produce ethylene, carbon dioxide reduction and ammonia synthesis.
