Plasmonic nanostructures for enhanced photocatalytic overall water splitting.
Review in iScience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Photocatalytic overall water splitting (OWS) is a promising approach for hydrogen production, leveraging solar energy to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen efficiently. However, the efficiency of current photocatalytic systems remains significantly below theoretical limits due to intrinsic constraints of semiconductor-based materials. Plasmonic metal-semiconductor photocatalysts represent a transformative solution by utilizing localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) to enhance light harvesting and promote hot electron transfer, effectively addressing these limitations. This study highlights the role of ultrafast spectroscopic techniques in revealing the temporal and spatial dynamics underlying plasmonic enhancement. These insights uncover key energy transfer pathways and interfacial charge processes that are critical for improving photocatalytic performance. By integrating recent experimental evidence with emerging design strategies, we outline key principles for the rational development of next-generation photocatalysts. This work aims to advance the overall efficiency of OWS systems, paving the way for more effective solar-driven hydrogen production technologies.
