This book provides an overview of the fundamentals of plasmonic
field enhancement phenomena and the recent advancements in the
field of hydrogen energy technologies that utilize plasmonics for
their performance enhancement. Hydrogen energy is currently a
representative clean energy without polluting or greenhouse
emission in its use. However, industrial production of hydrogen
molecules, or other usable hydrogen-containing molecules, is
required for the use of hydrogen energy. It is also important to
produce hydrogen in clean, renewable manners, to contribute to the
solution of the environmental problems, such as atmospheric
pollution and global warming, and of the depletion of energy
resources. For the widespread use of hydrogen energy, technical
developments particularly for hydrogen production and storage are
highly sought after. Free electrons in metals, particularly around
metal surfaces or interfaces with dielectric materials, exhibit a
strong interaction with electromagnetic fields or light in the form
of collective oscillation, named surface plasmons. The
electromagnetic field intensity around subwavelength-size metal
particles can be highly localized due to the coupling between the
incident photons and collective oscillation of free electrons at
the metal surface, resulting in focusing of electromagnetic energy
density, or namely local field enhancement.
