Photocatalytic water splitting has gained significant attention as a sustainable energy source, potentially replacing fossil fuels with clean hydrogen energy. While plasmonic materials have shown enhanced efficiency in photocatalytic water splitting, integrating bifunctional catalysts has further increased efficiency, achieving total water splitting in some instances. This chapter provides a deeper understanding of the effectiveness of plasmonic materials when combined or transformed into bifunctional catalysts, offering new insights for developing highly efficient novel bifunctional plasmonic catalysts.
