Abstract
The low permeability and heterogeneous distribution of drugs (including nanomedicines) have limited their deep penetration into solid tumors. Herein we report the design of gold nanoparticles with virus-like spikes (AuNVs) to mimic viral shapes and facilitate tumor penetration. Mechanistic studies revealed that AuNVs mainly entered cells through macropinocytosis, then transported to the Golgi/endoplasmic reticulum system via Rab11-regulated pathway, and finally exocytosed through recycling endosomes, leading to high cellular uptake, effective transcytosis, and deep tumor penetration compared to gold nanospheres (AuNPs) and gold nanostars (AuNSs). The high tumor accumulation and deep tumor penetration of mitoxantrone (MTO) facilitated by AuNVs endowed effective chemophotothermal therapy when exposed to a near-infrared II laser, significantly reducing tumor sizes in a mouse model of colorectal cancer. This study reveals a potent mechanism of viral-like structures in tissue penetration and highlights their potential as effective drug delivery carriers.

Abstract
Janus heterostructures consisting of multiple jointed components with distinct properties have gained growing interest in the photoredox catalytic field. Herein, we have developed a facile low-temperature method to gain anisotropic one-dimensional Au-tipped CdS (Au-CdS) nanorods (NRs), followed by assembling Ru molecular co-catalyst (RuN5) onto the surface of the NRs. The CdS NRs decorated with plasmonic Au nanoparticles and RuN5 complex harness the virtues of metal-semiconductor and inorganic-organic interface, giving directional charge transfer channels, spatially separated reaction sites, and enhanced local electric field distribution. As a result, the Au-CdS-RuN5 can act as an efficient dual-function photocatalyst for simultaneous H2 evolution and valorization of biomass-derived alcohols. Benefiting from the interfacial charge decoupling and selective chemical bond activation, the optimal all-in-one Au-CdS-RuN5 heterostructure shows greatly enhanced photoactivity and selectivity as compared to bare CdS NRs, along with a remarkable apparent quantum yield of 40.2 % at 400 nm. The structural evolution and working mechanism of the heterostructures are systematically analyzed based on experimental and computational results.

Abstract
Plasmonic catalysis has been employed to enhance molecular transformations under visible light excitation, leveraging the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in plasmonic nanoparticles. While plasmonic catalysis has been employed for accelerating reaction rates, achieving control over the reaction selectivity has remained a challenge. In addition, the incorporation of catalytic components into traditional plasmonic-catalytic antenna-reactor nanoparticles often leads to a decrease in optical absorption. To address these issues, this study focuses on the synthesis of bimetallic core@shell Au@AuPd nanoparticles (NPs) with ultralow loadings of palladium (Pd) into gold (Au) NPs. The goal is to achieve NPs with an Au core and a dilute alloyed shell containing both Au and Pd, with a low Pd content of around 10 atom %. By employing the (photo)electrocatalytic nitrite reduction reaction (NO2RR) as a model transformation, experimental and theoretical analyses show that this design enables enhanced catalytic activity and selectivity under visible light illumination. We found that the optimized Pd distribution in the alloyed shell allowed for stronger interaction with key adsorbed species, leading to improved catalytic activity and selectivity, both under no illumination and under visible light excitation conditions. The findings provide valuable insights for the rational design of antenna-reactor plasmonic-catalytic NPs with controlled activities and selectivity under visible light irradiation, addressing critical challenges to enable sustainable molecular transformations.

Abstract
Herein, we investigated the distinctive scattering properties exhibited by single gold nanorods coated with palladium (AuNRs@Pd), with variations in the Pd shell thicknesses and morphologies. AuNRs@Pd were synthesized through bottom-up epitaxial Pd growth using two different concentrations of Pd precursor. These single AuNRs@Pd displayed the characteristic of subradiant and superradiant localized surface plasmon resonance peaks, characterized by a noticeable gap marked by a Fano dip. We revealed the effect of local refractive index (RI) on the subradiant and superradiant peak energies, as well as the Fano dip in the scattering spectra of AuNRs@Pd with different Pd shell thicknesses. We demonstrated the applicability of the inflection points (IFs) method on detecting peaks and dip changes across different RIs. Thin AuNRs@Pd1mM displayed more pronounced sensitivity to peak shifts in response to variations in local RIs compared to thick AuNRs@Pd2mM. In contrast, thick AuNRs@Pd2mM exhibited greater sensitivity to changes in curvature near the subradiant and superradiant peak energies rather than peak shift sensitivity across different local RIs. Moreover, the Fano dip shift was more noticeable in thick AuNRs@Pd2mM compared to thin AuNRs@Pd1mM across different local RIs. Therefore, we provided new insight into the RI sensitivity on subradiant, superradiant, and Fano resonance modes in single AuNRs@Pd.

Abstract
Plasmon refers to the coherent oscillation of all conduction-band electrons in a nanostructure made of a metal or a heavily doped semiconductor. Upon excitation, the plasmon can decay through different channels, including nonradiative Landau damping for the generation of plasmon-induced energetic carriers, the so-called hot electrons and holes. The energetic carriers can be collected by transferring to a functional material situated next to the plasmonic component in a hybrid configuration to facilitate a range of photochemical processes for energy or chemical conversion. This article centers on the recent advancement in generating and utilizing plasmon-induced hot electrons in a rich variety of hybrid nanostructures. After a brief introduction to the fundamentals of hot-electron generation and decay in plasmonic nanocrystals, we extensively discuss how to collect the hot electrons with various types of functional materials. With a focus on plasmonic nanocrystals made of metals, we also briefly examine those based upon heavily doped semiconductors. Finally, we illustrate how site-selected growth can be leveraged for the rational fabrication of different types of hybrid nanostructures, with an emphasis on the parameters that can be experimentally controlled to tailor the properties for various applications.

Abstract
Understanding illumination-mediated kinetics is essential for catalyst design in plasmon catalysis. Here we prepare Pd-based plasmonic catalysts with tunable electronic structures to reveal the underlying illumination-enhanced kinetic mechanisms for formic acid (HCOOH) dehydrogenation. We demonstrate a kinetic switch from a competitive Langmuir-Hinshelwood adsorption mode in dark to a non-competitive type under irradiation triggered by local field and hot carriers. Specifically, the electromagnetic field induces a spatial-temporal separation of dehydrogenation-favorable configurations of reactant molecule HCOOH and HCOO- due to their natural different polarities. Meanwhile, the generated energetic carriers can serve as active sites for selective molecular adsorption. The hot electrons act as adsorption sites for HCOOH, while holes prefer to adsorb HCOO-. Such unique non-competitive adsorption kinetics induced by plasmon effects serves as another typical characteristic of plasmonic catalysis that remarkably differs from thermocatalysis. This work unravels unique adsorption transformations and a kinetic switching driven by plasmon nonthermal effects.

Abstract
As opposed to natural photosynthesis, a significant challenge in a semiconductor-based photocatalyst is the limited hole extraction efficiency, which adversely affects solar-to-fuel efficiency. Recent studies have demonstrated that photocatalysts featuring spatially isolated dual catalytic oxidation/reduction sites can yield enhanced hole extraction efficiencies. However, the decay dynamics of excited states in such photocatalysts have not been explored. Here a ternary barbell-shaped CdS/MoS2/Cu2S heterostructure is prepared, comprising CdS nanorods (NRs) interfaced with MoS2 nanosheets at both ends and Cu2S nanoparticles on the sidewall. By using transient absorption (TA) spectra, highly efficient charge separation within the CdS/MoS2/Cu2S heterostructure are identified. This is achieved through directed electron transfer to the MoS2 tips at a rate constant of >8.3 × 109 s-1 and rapid hole transfer to the Cu2S nanoparticles on the sidewall at a rate of >6.1 × 1010 s-1, leading to an exceptional overall charge transfer constant of 2.3 × 1011 s-1 in CdS/MoS2/Cu2S. The enhanced hole transfer efficiency results in a remarkably prolonged charge-separated state, facilitating efficient electron accumulation within the MoS2 tips. Consequently, the ternary CdS/MoS2/Cu2S heterostructure demonstrates a 22-fold enhancement in visible-light-driven H2 generation compare to pure CdS nanorods. This work highlights the significance of efficient hole extraction in enhancing the solar-to-H2 performance of semiconductor-based heterostructure.

Abstract
The plasmonic photothermal conversion efficiency can be enhanced by coupling among plasmonic atoms or plasmonic molecules due to the amplified local electric field and extinction cross-section. Recently, it has been theoretically proved that hybridization between dipolar modes and higher order modes can provide higher enhancement than that among dipolar modes in terms of both near- and far-field, which may lead to a higher photothermal conversion rate. In this work, we systematically investigated the photothermal conversion enhancement of plasmonic coupling between a dipolar mode of a titanium nitride nanoparticle (TiN NP) and a higher order mode of a gold nanorod (Au NR), which was compared to that of coupling among TiN NPs' dipolar modes. We evaluated the photothermal conversion efficiency of dipole-dipole coupling and dipole-multipole coupling in the nanocluster under the illumination of a monochromatic laser of 808 nm wavelength and simulated solar light, respectively. Both experimental tests and numerical simulations suggested that the plasmonic dipole-multipole coupling exhibited higher enhancement in photothermal conversion than dipole-dipole plasmonic coupling.

Abstract
Optical sensors and sensing technologies are playing a more and more important role in our modern world. From micro-probes to large devices used in such diverse areas like medical diagnosis, defence, monitoring of industrial and environmental conditions, optics can be used in a variety of ways to achieve compact, low cost, stand-off sensing with extreme sensitivity and selectivity. Actually, the challenges to the design and functioning of an optical sensor for a particular application requires intimate knowledge of the optical, material, and environmental properties that can affect its performance. This roadmap on optical sensors addresses different technologies and application areas. It is constituted by twelve contributions authored by world-leading experts, providing insight into the current state-of-the-art and the challenges their respective fields face. Two articles address the area of optical fibre sensors, encompassing both conventional and specialty optical fibres.

Abstract
Coupling visible light with Pd-based hybrid plasmonic nanostructures has effectively enhanced formic acid (FA) dehydrogenation at room temperature. Unlike conventional heating to achieve higher product yield, the plasmonic effect supplies a unique surface environment through the local electromagnetic field and hot charge carriers, avoiding unfavorable energy consumption and attenuated selectivity. In this minireview, we summarized the latest advances in plasmon-enhanced FA dehydrogenation, including geometry/size-dependent dehydrogenation activities, and further catalytic enhancement by coupling local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) with Fermi level engineering or alloying effect. Furthermore, some representative cases were taken to interpret the mechanisms of hot charge carriers and the local electromagnetic field on molecular adsorption/activation. Finally, a summary of current limitations and future directions was outlined from the perspectives of mechanism and materials design for the field of plasmon-enhanced FA decomposition.

Abstract
Heterogeneous bimetallic nanochains (NCs) have gained significant attention in the field of catalysis due to their abundant active sites, multi-component synergistic catalytic, and exotic electronic structures. Here, we present a novel approach to synthesize one-dimensional heterogeneous bimetallic nanochains using a local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) based strategy of liquid-phase photochemical welding method containing self-assembly and subsequent welding processes. Initially, we introduce additives that facilitate the self-assembly and alignment of Au nanoparticles (NPs) into orderly lines. Subsequently, the LSPR effect of the Au NPs is stimulated by light, enabling the second metal precursor to overcome the energy barrier and undergo photodeposition in the gap between the arranged Au NPs, thereby connecting the nano-metal particles. This strategy can be extended to the photochemical welding of Au NPs-Ag and Au NRs. Using electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) as a proof-of-concept application, the obtained one-dimensional structure of Au5Pt1 NCs exhibit promoted HER performances, where the mass activity of the Au5Pt1 nanochains is found to be 4.8 times higher than that of Au5Pt1 NPs and 10.4 times higher than that of commercial 20 wt% Pt/C catalysts. The promoted HER performance is benefited from the electron conduction ability and abundant active sites.

Abstract
As a key structural parameter, phase depicts the arrangement of atoms in materials. Normally, a nanomaterial exists in its thermodynamically stable crystal phase. With the development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials with unconventional crystal phases, which rarely exist in their bulk counterparts, or amorphous phase have been prepared using carefully controlled reaction conditions. Together these methods are beginning to enable phase engineering of nanomaterials (PEN), i.e., the synthesis of nanomaterials with unconventional phases and the transformation between different phases, to obtain desired properties and functions. This Review summarizes the research progress in the field of PEN. First, we present representative strategies for the direct synthesis of unconventional phases and modulation of phase transformation in diverse kinds of nanomaterials. We cover the synthesis of nanomaterials ranging from metal nanostructures such as Au, Ag, Cu, Pd, and Ru, and their alloys; metal oxides, borides, and carbides; to transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and 2D layered materials. We review synthesis and growth methods ranging from wet-chemical reduction and seed-mediated epitaxial growth to chemical vapor deposition (CVD), high pressure phase transformation, and electron and ion-beam irradiation. After that, we summarize the significant influence of phase on the various properties of unconventional-phase nanomaterials. We also discuss the potential applications of the developed unconventional-phase nanomaterials in different areas including catalysis, electrochemical energy storage (batteries and supercapacitors), solar cells, optoelectronics, and sensing. Finally, we discuss existing challenges and future research directions in PEN.

Abstract
Unprecedented advances in metal nanoparticle synthesis have paved the way for broad applications in sensing, imaging, catalysis, diagnosis, and therapy by tuning the optical properties, enhancing catalytic performance, and improving chemical and biological properties of metal nanoparticles. The central guiding concept for regulating the size and morphology of metal nanoparticles is identified as the precise manipulation of nucleation and subsequent growth, often known as seed-mediated growth methods. However, since the growth process is sensitive not only to the metal seeds but also to capping agents, metal precursors, growth solution, growth/incubation time, reductants, and other influencing factors, the precise control of metal nanoparticle morphology is multifactorial. Further, multiple reaction parameters are entangled with each other, so it is necessary to clarify the mechanism by which each factor precisely regulates the morphology of metal nanoparticles. In this review, to exploit the generality and extendibility of metal nanoparticle synthesis, the mechanisms of growth influencing factors in seed-mediated growth methods are systematically summarized. Second, a variety of critical properties and applications enabled by grown metal nanoparticles are focused upon. Finally, the current progress and offer insights on the challenges, opportunities, and future directions for the growth and applications of grown metal nanoparticles are reviewed.

Abstract
Integration of plasmonic nanoantennas with catalytically active reactors in deliberately designed hybrid supra-nanostructures creates a dual-functional materials platform, based upon which precise modulation of catalytic reaction kinetics becomes accomplishable through optical excitations of plasmon resonances. Here, we have developed a multistep synthetic approach that enables us to assemble colloidal Au@C/Pt core@shell/satellite supra-nanostructures, in which the Au core functions as a light-harvesting plasmonic nanoantenna, the Pt satellites act as catalytically active reactors, and the C shell serves as a nanoscale dielectric spacer separating the reactors from the antenna, respectively. By adjusting several synthetic parameters, the size of the Au core, the thickness of the C shell, and the surface coverage of Pt satellites can all be tuned independently. Choosing Pt-catalyzed cascade oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine in an aerobic aqueous environment as a model reaction, we have systematically studied the detailed kinetic features of the catalytic reactions both in the dark and under visible light illumination over a broad range of reaction conditions, which sheds light on the interplay between plasmonic and catalytic effects in these antenna-reactor nanohybrids. The plasmonic antenna effect can be effectively harnessed to kinetically modulate multiple crucial steps during the cascade reactions, benefiting from plasmon-enhanced interband electronic transitions in the Pt satellites and plasmon-enhanced intramolecular electronic excitations in chromogenic intermediate species. In addition to the plasmonic antenna effect, photothermal transduction derived from plasmonic excitations can also provide significant contributions to the kinetic enhancements under visible light illumination. The knowledge gained from this work serves as important guiding principles for rational design and structural optimization of plasmonic antenna-reactor hybrid nanomaterials, endowing us with enhanced capabilities to kinetically modulate targeted catalytic/photocatalytic molecule-transforming processes through light illumination.

Abstract
Heterocrystals consisting of multiple species have received wide attention owing to the advantage of the cooperative effect contributed by different functional counterparts; therefore, a controlled growth strategy is highly desired. Herein, we report an effective method to synthesize dumbbell-like Au-PtCu solid and hollow nanorods, regulated by the unique surface capping and oxidation etching roles of copper ions. Dumbbell-like nanorods are prepared through site-selective co-deposition of platinum and copper on both tips of gold nanorods assisted by the capping effect of the CTAB-Cu+ complex to passivate the side surface. On the other hand, hollow dumbbell-like Au-PtCu nanorods are formed through triggering the etching effect of copper ions by increasing the reaction temperature to 80 °C. The manipulation of the morphology and extinction properties of the trimetallic Au-PtCu nanorods is demonstrated by adjusting the concentration of copper ions. Under excitation with a near-infrared 808 nm laser, the dumbbell-like Au-PtCu nanorods show excellent photothermal conversion, with a 3.1 times temperature increment (ΔT) compared to bare Au nanorods, while the hollow dumbbell-like Au-PtCu NRs demonstrate improved photocatalytic activity under xenon lamp irradiation.

Abstract
Turning the carrier dynamics in heterojunction photocatalysts is a direct and effective strategy for improving the solar energy conversion efficiency of photocatalysts. Herein, we report a ternary CdS@MoS2-Co3O4 multiheterojunction photocatalyst consisting of the p-n junction of MoS2-Co3O4 and the type-I junction of CdS@MoS2, wherein MoS2 located at the frontier between CdS and Co3O4 acts as an intermediate bridge. The type-I junction allows the directional transfer of photoinduced charge from CdS to MoS2, suppressing the photocorrosion of CdS. Notably, the single-particle photoluminescence technique demonstrates the sequential one-direction hole transfer from MoS2 to Co3O4 aroused by the p-n junction, resulting in a long-lifetime charge separation in the carrier lifetime (54-58 ns). Compared to the bare CdS and type-I CdS@MoS2, the CdS@MoS2-Co3O4 photocatalyst affords a 347-fold and 3.5-fold enhancement of the H2 evolution rate, a quantum efficiency of 28.6% at 450 nm, and a 20 h of long-term stability. This work provides a new understanding of the rational regulation of the charge-transfer mechanism of type-I systems by constructing multiheterojunction photocatalysts.

Abstract
Plasmon damping and Fano resonance induced in the growth of palladium (Pd) on gold nanorods (AuNRs) have been poorly understood. Herein, we investigated the optical properties and morphologies of single AuNRs@Pd (core@shell) synthesized using epitaxial Pd growth at different Pd concentrations. The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectra of single AuNRs@Pd showed characteristic subradiant and superradiant peaks as well as Fano resonance as a spectral dip, which was highly influenced by the Pd shell thickness. The occurrence of the Fano resonance during the Pd growth was further verified by in situ real-time observation experiments. We then elucidated time-dependent, real-time variations in LSPR peak wavelength, metal-induced surface damping, and Fano resonance mode of single AuNRs@Pd during Pd shell formation in three successive phases: Pd reduction, nucleation, and growth. Therefore, this study provides new insights into metal interface damping, the Fano resonance, and optical tunability by engineering the Fano resonance energy and Pd shell thickness.

Abstract
A new lateral flow immunoassay strip (LFIA) combining sensitive detection and identification of multiple bacteria remains a huge challenge. In this study, we first developed multifunctional urchin-shaped Au-Ag@Pt nanoparticles (UAA@P NPs) with a unique combination of colorimetric-SERS-photothermal-catalytic (CM/SERS/PT/CL) properties and integrated them with LFIA for multiplexed detection and specific discrimination of pathogenic bacteria in blood samples. Unlike the conventional LFIA that relied on antibody (Ab), this novel LFIA introduced 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid (4-MPBA) as an ideal Ab replacer that was functionalized on UAA@P NPs (UAA@P/M NPs) with outstanding binding and enrichment capacities toward bacteria. Taking Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) as model bacteria, the limit of detection (LOD) was 3 CFU/mL for SERS-LFIA, 27 CFU/mL for PT-LFIA, and 18 CFU/mL for CL-LFIA, three of which were over 330-fold, 37-fold, and 55-fold more sensitive than ordinary visual CM-LFIA, respectively. Besides, this SERS-LFIA is capable of identifying three types of bacterial spiked blood samples (E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa) effectively according to specific bacterial Raman "fingerprints" by partial least-squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). More importantly, this LFIA was successfully applied to blood samples with satisfactory recoveries from 90.3% to 108.8% and capable of identifying the infected patients (N = 4) from healthy subjects (N = 2) with great accuracy. Overall, the multimodal LFIA incorporates bacteria discrimination and quantitative detection, offering an avenue for early warning and diagnosis of bacterial infection.

Abstract
One challenge for realizing high-efficiency electrocatalysts for CO2 electroreduction is lacking in comprehensive understanding of potential-driven chemical state and dynamic atomic-configuration evolutions. Herein, by using a complementary combination of in situ/operando methods and employing copper single-atom electrocatalyst as a model system, we provide evidence on how the complex interplay among dynamic atomic-configuration, chemical state change and surface coulombic charging determines the resulting product profiles. We further demonstrate an informative indicator of atomic surface charge (φe) for evaluating the CO2RR performance, and validate potential-driven dynamic low-coordinated Cu centers for performing significantly high selectivity and activity toward CO product over the well-known four N-coordinated counterparts. It indicates that the structural reconstruction only involved the dynamic breaking of Cu-N bond is partially reversible, whereas Cu-Cu bond formation is clearly irreversible. For all single-atom electrocatalysts (Cu, Fe and Co), the φe value for efficient CO production has been revealed closely correlated with the configuration transformation to generate dynamic low-coordinated configuration. A universal explication can be concluded that the dynamic low-coordinated configuration is the active form to efficiently catalyze CO2-to-CO conversion.

Abstract
Veterinary pharmaceuticals have been recently recognized as newly emerging environmental contaminants. Indeed, because of their uncontrolled or overused disposal, we are now facing undesirable amounts of these constituents in foodstuff and its related human health concerns. In this context, developing a well-organized environmental and foodstuff screening toward antibiotic levels is of paramount importance to ensure the safety of food products as well as human health. In this case, with the development and progress of electric/photo detecting, nanomaterials, and nucleic acid aptamer technology, their incorporation-driven evolving electrochemiluminescence aptasensing strategy has presented the hopeful potentials in identifying the residual amounts of different antibiotics toward sensitivity, economy, and practicality. In this context, we reviewed the up-to-date development of ECL aptasensors with aptamers as recognition elements and nanomaterials as the active elements for quantitative sensing the residual antibiotics in foodstuff and agriculture-related matrices, dissected the unavoidable challenges, and debated the upcoming prospects.

Abstract
Surface plasmonic effects have been widely used in photocatalytic reactions like CO2 conversion in the past decades. However, owing to the significant controversy in the physical processes of plasmon photocatalytic reactions and difficulty in realizing CO2 reduction, the influence mechanism of the plasmon effect on the CO2 photoreduction is still under debate. In this study, Au particles deposited on various substrates were employed to acquire insights into the plasmon photocatalytic CO2 reduction, including SiO2, n-Si, p-Si, TiO2-SiO2, TiO2-n-Si, and TiO2-p-Si. It was found that the plasmon resonant enhancement (PRE) effect of Au-SiO2 caused by the Au plasmon was stronger than that of Au-TiO2-SiO2 and Au-n-Si (Au-p-Si) in the visible-light range, while it was weaker for Au-n-Si (Au-p-Si) samples than Au-TiO2-n-Si (Au-TiO2-p-Si). The simulation results agree with the experimental conclusions. The photocatalytic results indicated that the catalytic activity of Au-n-Si (Au-p-Si) samples was lower than that of Au-TiO2-n-Si (Au-TiO2-p-Si), and Au-SiO2 was lower than Au-TiO2-SiO2 and Au-n-Si (Au-p-Si) samples, suggesting that the direct electron transfer (DET) mechanism was dominant here compared with the PRE mechanism.

Abstract
Developing an efficient catalyst for formic acid (FA) dehydrogenation is a promising strategy for safe hydrogen storage and transportation. Herein, we successfully developed trimetallic NiAuPd heterogeneous catalysts through a galvanic replacement reaction and a subsequent chemical reduction process to boost hydrogen generation from FA decomposition at room temperature by coupling Fermi level engineering with plasmonic effect. We demonstrated that Ni worked as an electron reservoir to donate electrons to Au and Pd driven by Fermi level equilibrium whereas plasmonic Au served as an optical absorber to generate energetic hot electrons and a charge-redistribution mediator. Ni and Au worked cooperatively to promote the charge heterogeneity of surface-active Pd sites, leading to enhanced chemisorption of formate-related intermediates and eventually outstanding activity (342 mmol g-1 h-1 ) compared with bimetallic counterpart. This work offers excellent insight into the rational design of efficient catalysts for practical hydrogen energy exploitation.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanostructures have shown immense potential in photocatalysis because of their distinct photochemical properties associated with tunable photoresponses and strong light-matter interactions. The introduction of highly active sites is essential to fully exploit the potential of plasmonic nanostructures in photocatalysis, considering the inferior intrinsic activities of typical plasmonic metals. This review focuses on active site-engineered plasmonic nanostructures with enhanced photocatalytic performance, wherein the active sites are classified into four types (i.e., metallic sites, defect sites, ligand-grafted sites, and interface sites). The synergy between active sites and plasmonic nanostructures in photocatalysis is discussed in detail after briefly introducing the material synthesis and characterization methods. Active sites can promote the coupling of solar energy harvested by plasmonic metal to catalytic reactions in the form of local electromagnetic fields, hot carriers, and photothermal heating. Moreover, efficient energy coupling potentially regulates the reaction pathway by facilitating the excited state formation of reactants, changing the status of active sites, and creating additional active sites using photoexcited plasmonic metals. Afterward, the application of active site-engineered plasmonic nanostructures in emerging photocatalytic reactions is summarized. Finally, a summary and perspective of the existing challenges and future opportunities are presented. This review aims to deliver some insights into plasmonic photocatalysis from the perspective of active sites, expediting the discovery of high-performance plasmonic photocatalysts.

Abstract
Imitating the natural photosynthesis to synthesize hydrocarbon fuels represents a viable strategy for solar-to-chemical energy conversion, where utilizing low-energy photons, especially near-infrared photons, has been the ultimate yet challenging aim to further improving conversion efficiency. Plasmonic metals have proven their ability in absorbing low-energy photons, however, it remains an obstacle in effectively coupling this energy into reactant molecules. Here we report the broadband plasmon-induced CO2 reduction reaction with water, which achieves a CH4 production rate of 0.55 mmol g-1 h-1 with 100% selectivity to hydrocarbon products under 400 mW cm-2 full-spectrum light illumination and an apparent quantum efficiency of 0.38% at 800 nm illumination. We find that the enhanced local electric field plays an irreplaceable role in efficient multiphoton absorption and selective energy transfer for such an excellent light-driven catalytic performance. This work paves the way to the technique for low-energy photon utilization.

Abstract
Understanding the role of energy dissipation and charge transfer under exothermic chemical reactions on metal catalyst surfaces is important for elucidating the fundamental phenomena at solid-gas and solid-liquid interfaces. Recently, many surface chemistry studies have been conducted on the solid-liquid interface, so correlating electronic excitation in the liquid-phase with the reaction mechanism plays a crucial role in heterogeneous catalysis. In this review, we introduce the detection principle of electron transfer at the solid-liquid interface by developing cutting-edge technologies with metal-semiconductor Schottky nanodiodes. The kinetics of hot electron excitation are well correlated with the reaction rates, demonstrating that the operando method for understanding nonadiabatic interactions is helpful in studying the reaction mechanism of surface molecular processes. In addition to the detection of hot electrons excited by a catalytic reaction, we highlight recent results on how the transfer of the hot electrons influences surface chemical and photoelectrochemical reactions.

Abstract
The use of metal composites based on plasmonic nanostructures partnered with catalytic counterparts has recently emerged as a promising approach in the field of plasmon-enhanced electrocatalysis. Here, we report on the role of the surface morphology, size, and anchored site of Pd catalysts coupled to plasmonic metasurfaces formed by periodic arrays of multimetallic Ni/Au nanopillars for formic acid electro-oxidation reaction (FAOR). We compare the activity of two kinds of metasurfaces differing in the positioning of the catalytic Pd nanoparticles. In the first case, the Pd nanoparticles have a polyhedron crystal morphology with exposed (200) facets and were deposited over the Ni/Au metasurfaces in a site-selective fashion by limiting their growth at the electromagnetic hot spots (Ni/Au-Pd@W). In contrast, the second case consists of spherical Pd nanoparticles grown in solution, which are homogeneously deposited onto the Ni/Au metasurface (Ni/Au-Pd@M). Ni/Au-Pd@W catalytic metasurfaces demonstrated higher light-enhanced FAOR activity (61%) in comparison to the Ni/Au-Pd@M sample (42%) for the direct dehydrogenation pathway. Moreover, the site-selective Pd deposition promotes the growth of nanoparticles favoring a more selective catalytic behavior and a lower degree of CO poisoning on Pd surface. The use of cyclic voltammetry, energy-resolved incident photon to current conversion efficiency, open circuit potential, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy highlights the role of plasmonic near fields and hot holes in driving the catalytic enhancement under light conditions.

Abstract
Understanding the nature of hot carrier pathways following surface plasmon excitation of heterometallic nanostructures and their mechanistic prevalence during photoelectrochemical oxidation of complex hydrocarbons, such as ethanol, remains challenging. This work studies the fate of carriers from Au nanorods before and after the presence of reductively photodeposited Pd at the single-particle level using scattering and emission spectroscopy, along with ensemble photoelectrochemical methods. A sub-2 nm epitaxial Pd0 shell was reductively grown onto colloidal Au nanorods via hot carriers generated from surface plasmon resonance excitation in the presence of [PdCl4]2-. These bimetallic Pd-Au nanorod architectures exhibited 14% quenched emission quantum yields and 9% augmented plasmon damping determined from their scattering spectra compared to the bare Au nanorods, consistent with injection/separation of intraband hot carriers into the Pd. Absorbed photon-to-current efficiency in photoelectrochemical ethanol oxidation was enhanced 50× from 0.00034% to 0.017% due to the photodeposited Pd. Photocurrent during ethanol oxidation improved 13× under solar-simulated AM1.5G and 40× for surface plasmon resonance-targeted irradiation conditions after photodepositing Pd, consistent with enhanced participation of intraband-excited sp-band holes and desorption of ethanol oxidation reaction intermediates owing to photothermal effects.

Abstract
A signal-on sandwich-like electrochemical immunosensor was built for determination of cytokeratin 19 fragments 21-1 (CYFRA 21-1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by confining electroactive dye (e.g., methylene blue, MB) as a probe for amplifying signals. Specifically, core-shell gold@rhodium dendritic nanocrystals (Au@Rh DNCs) behaved as a substrate for primary antibody and accelerate interfacial electron transfer. Besides, hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) were subsequently modified with polydopamine (PDA) and PtPd nanoparticles for sequential integration of the secondary antibody and confinement of MB as a label, termed as MB/PtPd/PDA/HCSs for clarity. The built sensors showed a broad linear range (100 fg mL-1 ~ 100 ng mL-1) for detection of CYFRA 21-1 with an ultra-low detection limit (31.72 fg mL-1, S/N = 3), coupled with satisfactory performance in human serum samples. This work can be explored for assays of other proteins and provides some constructive insights for early and accurate diagnosis of NSCLC.

Abstract
Light utilization largely governs the performance of CO2 photoconversion, whereas most of the materials that are implemented in such an application are restricted in a narrow spectral absorption range. Plasmonic metamaterials with a designable regular pattern and facile tunability are excellent candidates for maximizing light absorption to generate substantial hot electrons and thermal energy. Herein, a concept of coupling a Au-based stacked plasmonic metamaterial with single Cu atoms in alloy, as light absorber and catalytic sites, respectively, is reported for gas-phase light-driven catalytic CO2 hydrogenation. The metamaterial structure works in a broad spectral range (370-1040 nm) to generate high surface temperature for photothermal catalysis, and also induces strong localized electric field in favor of transfer of hot electrons and reduced energy barrier in CO2 hydrogenation. This work unravels the significant role of a strong localized electric field in photothermal catalysis and demonstrates a scalable fabrication approach to light-driven catalysts based on plasmonic metamaterials.

Abstract
Based on luminol-capped Pt-tipped Au bimetallic nanorods (NRs) (L-Au-Pt NRs) as the anode emitter and SnS2 quantum dots (QDs) hybrid Eu metal organic frameworks (MOFs) (SnS2 QDs@Eu MOFs) as the cathode emitter, a dual-signal electrochemiluminescence (ECL) platform was designed for the ultrasensitive and highly selective detection of kanamycin (KAN). Using a dual-signal output mode, the ratiometric ECL aptasensor largely eliminates false-positives or false-negatives by self-calibration in the KAN assay process. To stimulate the resonance energy transform (RET) system, the KAN aptamer and complementary DNA are introduced for conjugation between the donor and acceptor. With the specific recognition of target KAN by its aptamer, L-Au-Pt NRs-apt partially peels off from the electrode surface. Eventually, the RET system is removed, leading to an increasing cathode signal and a decreasing anode signal. In view of this phenomenon, the ratiometric aptasensor can quantify KAN from 1 pM to 10 nM with a low detection limit of 0.32 pM. This dual-signal ECL aptasensor exhibits great practical potential in environmental monitoring and food safety.

Abstract
Plasmon-assisted chemistry is the result of a complex interplay between electromagnetic near fields, heat and charge transfer on the nanoscale. The disentanglement of their roles is non-trivial. Therefore, a thorough knowledge of the chemical, structural and spectral properties of the plasmonic/molecular system being used is required. Specific techniques are needed to fully characterize optical near fields, temperature and hot carriers with spatial, energetic and/or temporal resolution. The timescales for all relevant physical and chemical processes can range from a few femtoseconds to milliseconds, which necessitates the use of time-resolved techniques for monitoring the underlying dynamics. In this Review, we focus on experimental techniques to tackle these challenges. We further outline the difficulties when going from the ensemble level to single-particle measurements. Finally, a thorough understanding of plasmon-assisted chemistry also requires a substantial joint experimental and theoretical effort.

Abstract
Plasmonic catalysis in the colloidal phase requires robust surface ligands that prevent particles from aggregation in adverse chemical environments and allow carrier flow from reagents to nanoparticles. This work describes the use of a water-soluble conjugated polymer comprising a thiophene moiety as a surface ligand for gold nanoparticles to create a hybrid system that, under the action of visible light, drives the conversion of the biorelevant NAD+ to its highly energetic reduced form NADH. A combination of advanced microscopy techniques and numerical simulations revealed that the robust metal-polymer heterojunction, rich in sulfonate functional groups, directs the interaction of electron-donor molecules with the plasmonic photocatalyst. The tight binding of polymer to the gold surface precludes the need for conventional transition-metal surface cocatalysts, which were previously shown to be essential for photocatalytic NAD+ reduction but are known to hinder the optical properties of plasmonic nanocrystals. Moreover, computational studies indicated that the coating polymer fosters a closer interaction between the sacrificial electron-donor triethanolamine and the nanoparticles, thus enhancing the reactivity.

Abstract
The successful development of artificial photosynthesis requires finding new materials able to efficiently harvest sunlight and catalyze hydrogen generation and carbon dioxide reduction reactions. Plasmonic nanoparticles are promising candidates for these tasks, due to their ability to confine solar energy into molecular regions. Here, we review recent developments in hybrid plasmonic photocatalysis, including the combination of plasmonic nanomaterials with catalytic metals, semiconductors, perovskites, 2D materials, metal-organic frameworks, and electrochemical cells. We perform a quantitative comparison of the demonstrated activity and selectivity of these materials for solar fuel generation in the liquid phase. In this way, we critically assess the state-of-the-art of hybrid plasmonic photocatalysts for solar fuel production, allowing its benchmarking against other existing heterogeneous catalysts. Our analysis allows the identification of the best performing plasmonic systems, useful to design a new generation of plasmonic catalysts.

Abstract
Catalysis is central to a more sustainable future and a circular economy. If the energy required to drive catalytic processes could be harvested directly from sunlight, the possibility of replacing contemporary processes based on terrestrial fuels by the conversion of light into chemical energy could become a step closer to reality. Plasmonic catalysis is currently at the forefront of photocatalysis, enabling one to overcome the limitations of "classical" wide bandgap semiconductors for solar-driven chemistry. Plasmonic catalysis enables the acceleration and control of a variety of molecular transformations due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) excitation. Studies in this area have often focused on the fundamental understanding of plasmonic catalysis and the demonstration of plasmonic catalytic activities towards different reactions. In this feature article, we discuss recent contributions from our group in this field by employing plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) with controllable features as model systems to gain insights into structure-performance relationships in plasmonic catalysis. We start by discussing the effect of size, shape, and composition in plasmonic NPs over their activities towards LSPR-mediated molecular transformations. Then, we focus on the effect of metal support interactions over activities, reaction selectivity, and reaction pathways. Next, we shift to the control over the structure in hollow NPs and nanorattles. Inspired by the findings from these model systems, we demonstrate a design-driven strategy for the development of plasmonic catalysts based on plasmonic-catalytic multicomponent NPs for two types of molecular transformations: the selective hydrogenation of phenylacetylene and the oxygen evolution reaction. Finally, future directions, challenges, and perspectives in the field of plasmonic catalysis with designer NPs are discussed. We believe that the examples and concepts presented herein may inspire work and progress in plasmonic catalysis encompassing the design of plasmonic multicomponent materials, new strategies to control reaction selectivity, and the unraveling of stability and reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
Plasmonic bimetal nanostructures can be employed to amplify electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signals. In this work, a high-performance ECL platform was constructed using a europium metal-organic framework (MOF) as a luminophore and Au-Pt bimetallic nanorods (NRs) as a plasma source. Due to the SPR effect of Au-Pt NRs, the aptasensor exhibits 2.6-fold ECL intensity compared to that of pure polyaniline (PANI)-decorated perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCA)/Eu MOF. Moreover, decoration with PTP greatly enhances the conductivity and stability of Eu MOF, resulting in sizeable plasmon-enhanced electrochemical luminescence. The as-designed plasmon-enhanced ECL aptasensor displayed highly sensitive detection for lincomycin (Lin). The as-proposed aptasensor could quantify Lin from 0.1 mg/mL to 0.1 ng/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.026 ng/mL.
