By using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy with visible pump and IR probe to observe generation of injected electrons, we could directly observe plasmon-induced electron transfer from 10 nm gold nanodots to TiO2 nanocrystalline film. It was revealed that the reaction time was within 240 fs and the yield was about 40%.
