英文摘要： The applicants have discovered the phenomena of plasmon-mediated direct photocatalysis and “memory” capability of semimetal Bi element. In order to solve the key scientific problems based on this discovery, this proposal is expected to realize the size and morphology control of Bi element through optimizing the synthesis conditions systematically. The localized surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of Bi element can be observed by electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS). Mie theory (MT) and a finite integration technique (FIT) for Maxwell equation were used to simulate the SPR absorption spectra and simulate the electromagnetic field distribution of Bi element arising from SPR for elucidating the influence of size and morphology of Bi element on the SPR effets. The mechanism of direct plasmonic photocatalysis of Bi element will be revealed by analyzing the production, transfer and life-time of photo-induced charge carriers and active radical species using the time resolved fluorescent spectra and electron spin resonance. The proposal will also analyze the active species and their variation during the light irradiation and after turning off the illumination to reveal the origin of the “catalytic memory” capability. The as-synthesized Bi element will be applied in purification of NO at ppb level and the relationship between materials microstructure and plasmonic photocatalytic activity will be established. By considering the variations of active species and the analysis of the concentration and distribution of intermediates and final products as well as the active species variation, the reaction mechanism for direct plasmonic photocatalytic removal of NO by Bi element will be revealed, which could provide technological basis for the future applications. This research is expected to shed new light on the understanding of plasmonic photocatalysis mediated by non-noble metals.
