Plasmonic Au-nanoparticle-doped TiO2 thin-film layers on silicon for anti-reflection- and photocurrent-enhancement
In this work we investigate the plasmonic opto-electrical effects of TiO2 layers with embedded Au nanoparticles (TiO2:AuNP) on Si wafer by spectral photoconductivity measurements.In correlation with a decrease in reflectivity we find a photocurrent enhancement in the Si-wafers in the IR region due to the anti-reflective effect of the TiO2:AuNP layers on top.However,plasmonic absorbance at the local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) leads to a reduction of photocurrent in the spectral region of LSPR due to the small size of the AuNPs.The presence of a part of AuNPs on the Si surface leads to a reduction of lifetime and hence of photocurrent in the Si wafer.
