英文摘要：

The noble metal nanoparticles, such as gold, silver and copper, has been widely incorporated into the photoelectronic devices acting as a light-harvesting an- tenna and enhancing photocurrents through their light scattering or localized surface plasmon resonance effects. Here, this article presented the investigations into the use of gold nanocrystals to realize the plasmon-enhanced photocurrent generation in TiO2 nanorod-based quantum dots-sensitized solar cells （QDSSCs）. By introducing the gold nanocrystals, the short-circuit current density （Jsc） of QDSSCs was enhanced more than 10 % from 7.788 to 8.574 mA/cm^2 due to the direct injection of hot electrons from the gold nanocrystals to the photoanode. In order to confirm such conclusion, composite Au/TiO2 nanostructure was also fabricated. Indeed, the hot electrons injection resulted photocurrent density of ～5 mA/cm^2 was clearly observed under the visible light irradiation.
