Abstract: Plasmonic nanostructures function as an antenna-reactor nanostructure to focus and convert light into thermal/chemical energy, and thus have significant potential for sustainable solar water disinfection. However, the insufficient energy harvesting efficiency resulting from inconsistent nano-features linked with arrangement and scaling is a persistent challenge. An integrated optofluidic fabrication method is presented to produce a high density integrative plasmonic dimer array to enhance solar water disinfection. The plasmonic dimer array is constructed by a combined fabrication of self-assembly monolayer method and block-co-polymer lithography approaches. This combination leads to a two-dimensional hexagonal array of dimer structures consisting of 1.3 nm nanogap. The uniformity and high density of the nanogaps in the plasmonic dimer array allows strong light focusing and a rapid and highly efficient harvesting of photothermal energy at visible and near-infrared region.
