The presence of an inner &quot;stiff&quot; transition-metal nanoshell with a higher value of the elastic modulus is found to increase the frequency of the lattice vibration of the outer soft gold nanoshell. This could also explain the observed increase in both the gold lattice vibrational frequency as well as the lattice vibration relaxation time in the Au-Pt and Au-Pd double-shell nanocages. It is also found that when these nanoparticles are assembled into monolayers on quartz substrates by the Langmuir-Blodgett technique, the oscillation frequency of the gold shell with the transition metal having the largest elastic constant suffers the least change in its oscillation frequency as a result of its resistance to distortion as a result of binding to the substrate.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WOS:000312170600022</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Times Cited: 0Mahmoud, Mahmoud A.

Despite their great potential, far-from-ideal performance and poor utilization of the solar spectrum have prevented them from becoming a widespread and practical technology. We review recent experimental work that uses dynamics measurements to study limitations of photoelectrochemical cells from a fundamental level and the use of TiO2 nanotube arrays as a superior alternative to TiO2 nanoparticles. Through a combination of nanoscale size control, doping, composite materials, and the incorporation of noble-metal nanoparticles, improved performance and light harvesting are demonstrated.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WOS:000305517600012</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Times Cited: 0Szymanski, Paul El-Sayed, Mostafa A.</style></notes><custom7><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1202</style></custom7><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1007/s00214-012-1202-2</style></electronic-resource-num></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yen, C.

To this end, we used three approaches in our solution-based cell: proton selective Nafion membrane. (2) We maximized the plasmonic surface (1) We improved the charge carrier separation in solution through the use of a field effects by selecting the capping polymer with minimum surface field screening and best nanopartide stability. (3) We selected the plasmonic nanoparticle with the strongest plasmonic field whose surface plasmon resonance has the largest spectral overlap with the blue light absorbing M-intermediate. Theoretical models are used to explain experimental results, which show a 40 nm cuboidal nanoparticle capped with 55k PVP polymer to give the best photocurrent enhancement. Enhanced by this particle, bR in our Nafion membrane solution cell gave a photocurrent of 0.21 mu A/cm(3), which is 5000 times larger than the published results for thin film bR electrochemical cells even with an applied bias. Additional possible enhancements are proposed.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WOS:000294790200054</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yen, Chun-Wan Hayden, Steven C.
