PENYERAPAN SINERGI DAN EFEK PLASMONIK SiO2@Au@TiO2 DALAM FOTOANODE UNTUK SEL SURYA TERSENSITISASI PEWARNA. Untuk meningkatkan pemanenan cahaya tampak di dalam Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC), anoda foto TiO2 ditambahkan dengan struktur nano plasmonik. Struktur nano core/multishell SiO2@Au@TiO2 dengan SiO2 yang digunakan berasal dari hasil ekstraksi lumpur Sidoarjo telah disintesis dan dicampurkan ke dalam anoda foto TiO2. Di samping itu, jumlah Au dalam struktur core/multishell yang divariasikan dengan jumlah 60 ml, 90 ml, dan 120 ml. Fraksi core/multishell SiO2@Au@TiO2 terhadap pasta TiO2 divariasikan, yakni 0,5%, 1%, dan 5%. Dari hasil pengujian UV–Vis terlihat bahwa absorpsi dari SiO2@Au@TiO2 hanya berbeda pada panjang gelombang yang besar sebagai efek dari adanya kluster partikel nano dalam ukuran besar, namun demikian nilai efisiensi dari ketiga variasi Au dengan 3 variasi fraksi tidak menunjukkan hasil yang signifikan dibandingkan dengan anoda foto dengan TiO2 saja. Hasil uji Incident Photon-to-Current Efficiency (IPCE) menunjukkan hal serupa seperti kurva J-V, spektrum dari anoda foto dengan struktur core/multishell SiO2@Au@TiO2 sedikit lebih tinggi dan lebar dibandingkan dengan anoda foto TiO2 saja. Hal ini menunjukkan efek sinergistik dari plasmonik dan keberadaan silika di dalam struktur nano tersebut.
