Key Points

Hot carrier transfer from silver nanoclusters to PFAS shows critical size dependence.
The electronic structure of these nanoclusters significantly influences their photocatalytic efficiency.
Experimentation indicates plasmonic effects enhance electron transfer mechanisms in these systems.
These findings may inform future designs of efficient catalysts for environmental applications, particularly in PFAS remediation.

Implication

This analysis reveals the role of nanocluster size and electronic structure in hot carrier transfer to PFAS.

Abstract

Plasmonic metal nanoclusters (NCs) are widely explored in photocatalysis due to their ability to generate excess energy carriers or hot carriers (HCs) that can transfer to nearby molecules and drive...
