including the dielectric function, electronic states, and surface properties. Further investigations of plasmonic metal catalysts, both macroscopically and microscopically, provide more detailed fundamental knowledge on controlling plasmoninduced chemical reactions. In addition, the development of a theory to handle the entangled key factors, as well as a precise and large amount of experimental data for various materials and reactions, is required to establish a strategy for designing and customizing plasmonic metal catalysts.
