We report solar-to-fuel conversion reaction often requires multiple proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) processes powered by the energetic electrons and/or holes generated by the absorption of multiple photons. The effective coupling of multiple electron transfer from the light absorber with the multiple PCET reactions at the catalytic center is one of the key challenges in efficient and selective conversion of solar energy to chemical fuels. In this paper, we examine the dynamics of multiple electron transfer in quantum confined CdS nanorods with a Pt tip, in which the CdS rod functions as the light absorber and the Pt tip the catalytic center. By excitation-fluence-dependent transient absorption spectroscopic measurements, we show that the multiexciton Auger recombination rate in CdS rods follows a carrier-collision model, k_n^A = n²(n – 1)/4k₂^A, with a biexciton lifetime (1/k₂^A) of 2.0 ± 0.2 ns. In CdS–Pt nanorods, electron transfer kinetics from the CdS conduction band edge to the Pt show negligible dependence on the excitation fluence, occurring with a half-life time of 5.6 ± 0.6 ps. The efficiency of multiple exciton dissociation by multiple electron transfer to Pt decreases from 100% in biexciton states to ~41% at 22 exciton state due to the competition with Auger recombination. The half-lifetime of the n-charge separated state recombination (with n electrons in the Pt and n holes in the CdS) decreases from 10 μs in the single charge separated state to 42 ns in nine charge separated states. Our findings suggest the possibility of driving multielectron photocatalytic reactions under intense illumination and controlling product selectivity through multielectron transfer.
