The development of advanced photocatalysts for environmental applications requires the synthesis of solids for efficient charge carrier utilization. Gold nanoparticles on TiO2 are valued for their versatility in environmental research. The localized surface plasmon resonance at the edges of Au particles enhances the photocatalytic activity. In this regard, Au nanoflowers were successfully deposited on TiO2, resulting in catalysts with unprecedented activity and stability. The photocatalytic performance in H2-assisted NO2 reduction showed significant conversion at 30 °C under visible light. The results emphasize the role of Au morphology in charge carrier dynamics and photocatalytic activity. Au nanoflowers outperformed spherical Au particles, proving that the shape of the particles is crucial for the photocatalytic efficiency. View this paper
