Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is a highly promising approach to improve the photocatalytic performance. Noble metal nanoparticles (NPs) with LSPR characteristics have drawn widespread interest in photocatalysis. However, the high cost and low reserves of precious metals greatly limit their further practical applications. Recently, great attention has been shifted to low-cost and abundant non-precious metal-based plasma (NMP) materials. NMP usually shows similar LSPR characteristics to precious metals and even better performance in some cases. The LSPR effects of NMP are beneficial for local field enhancement, plasma-induced resonance energy transfer, hot electron injection, photothermal effect, which play important roles in improving photocatalytic activity. Herein, the recent development of photocatalytic applications of NMP-based materials (including metal NPs and semiconductors) is summarized, including photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) from water splitting, photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction (PCR), photocatalytic nitrogen reduction (PNR), PHE from ammonia borane (AB), photocatalytic pollutants degradation, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), photothermal therapy, sensing or upconversion luminescence (UCL) and other photocatalytic reactions (such as ethanol dehydrogenation and so on). This review outlined the current advances and challenges of NMP-based materials for photocatalysis, which is expected to guide the design of NMP-related materials for solar energy conversion.

非贵金属基等离子体材料光催化研究新进展

局域表面等离子体共振（LSPR）是一种非常有前景的提高光催化性能的方法。具有局域表面等离子体共振特性的贵金属纳米粒子（NP）引起了光催化领域的广泛兴趣。然而贵金属的高成本和低储量极大地限制了其进一步的实际应用。最近，人们的注意力已经转向低成本和丰富的非贵金属基等离子体（NMP）材料。 NMP 通常表现出与贵金属类似的 LSPR 特性，在某些情况下甚至表现出更好的性能。 NMP的局域表面等离子体共振效应有利于局域场增强、等离子体诱导共振能量转移、热电子注入、光热效应，对提高光催化活性具有重要作用。本文总结了NMP基材料（包括金属纳米粒子和半导体）光催化应用的最新进展，包括光催化分解水析氢（PHE）、光催化二氧化碳还原（PCR）、光催化氮还原（PNR）、PHE氨硼烷（AB）、光催化污染物降解、表面增强拉曼散射（SERS）、光热疗法、传感或上转换发光（UCL）以及其他光催化反应（如乙醇脱氢等）。该综述概述了目前基于NMP的光催化材料的进展和挑战，有望指导用于太阳能转换的NMP相关材料的设计。
