In situ liquid phase synthesis of hydrogen peroxide from molecular oxygen using gold nanoparticle-loaded titanium(IV) dioxide photocatalyst.
Gold nanoparticle loading has led to a drastic enhancement of TiO(2)-photocatalized generation of H(2)O(2) from O(2) with a unique inversed volcano-type relation between the activity and Au particle size.
