Abstract

Au/TiO₂ samples exhibiting stronger photoabsorption at around 550 nm due to surface plasmon resonance were prepared by using a multi-step photodeposition method and the samples exhibited higher levels of activity for H₂ production from various compounds such as 2-propanol, ethanol and ammonia in aqueous suspensions under visible light irradiation.
