Abstract

In this paper the nano gold doped in TiO2 were prepared, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, IR spectrometry and electrochemical methods. It was found that the citric acid oxidation could be catalyzed by Au@TiO2 under irradiation with full-spectrum solar light.
