Abstract
We analyze and compare surface- and vol
ume-based internal photoelectric effects from
spherical nanoparticles, obtaining analytical expression
s for the photoemission rate in both cases. Similar
to results for a flat metal surface, one can show that
the surface mechanism preva
ils, since it is unaffected
by detrimental hot electron collisions. Transient ab
sorption results from dielectric permittivity
discontinuity at the nanoparticle boundary and leads to a substantial (by ~5 times) increase of the
photoelectron emission rate.
