Povzetek: t: In this study, we pioneered the synthesis of nanoflower-shaped TiO2 -supported Au photocatalysts and investigated their properties. Au nanoflowers (Au NFs) were prepared by a Na-citrate and hydroquinone-based preparation method, followed by wet impregnation of the derived Au NFs on the surface of TiO2 nanorods (TNR). A uniform and homogeneous distribution of Au NFs was observed in the TNR + NF(0.7) sample (lower Na-citrate concentration), while their distribution was heterogeneous in the TNR + NF(1.4) sample (higher Na-citrate concentration). The UV-Vis DR spectra revealed the size- and shape-dependent optical properties of the Au NFs, with the LSPR effect observed in the visible region. The solid-state EPR spectra showed the presence of Ti3+, oxygen vacancies and electron interactions with organic compounds on the catalyst surface. In the case of the TNR + NF(0.7) sample, high photocatalytic activity was observed in the H2 -assisted reduction of NO2 to N2 at room temperature under visible-light illumination. In contrast, the TNR + NF(1.4) catalyst as well as the heat-treated samples showed no ability to reduce NO2 under visible light, indicating the presence of deformed Au NFs limiting the LSPR effect. These results emphasized the importance of the choice of synthesis method, as this could strongly influence the photocatalytic activity of the Au NFs

Synthesis and characterization of plasmonic ▫$Au/TiO_2$▫ nanorod solids for heterogeneous photocatalysis
Špela Slapničar, Gregor Žerjav, Janez Zavašnik, Matjaž Finšgar, Albin Pintar, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek

Povzetek: Plasmonic Au (1 wt%) catalysts deposited on hydrothermally synthesized TiO2 nanorods (TNR) were investigated in this study. Based on the duration of mixing of the Au precursor/TNR suspension during the wet impregnation synthesis and parameters of the end calcination, Au/TiO2 catalysts with different sizes of Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) were obtained. The prepared solids were thoroughly characterized by several instrumental techniques to investigate property-activity relationships. Regardless of the size of Au particles on the catalyst surface, an absorption peak at 550 nm occurred in all UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra of the investigated Au/TiO2 catalysts, which is characteristic of the localized surface plasmon resonance effect exerted by metallic Au NPs. By measuring the formation of reactive oxygen species under visible-light illumination using various scavengers, the production of superoxide anion radicals (O2•single bond) and hydroxyl radicals were identified, however, the former were found to represent the main reactive oxygen species that govern the oxidation of aqueous bisphenol A (BPA) employed as a model organic pollutant. The activity of Au/TiO2 catalysts for the generation of O2•single bond radicals (and BPA oxidation) increases by increasing the Schottky barrier height, which is due to the slow reduction of water-dissolved O2 on the catalyst surface.
