In this study, an anatase/rutile mixed-phase titanium dioxide (TiO<sub>2</sub>) hierarchical network deposited with Au nanoparticles (Au/TiO<sub>2</sub> ARHN) was synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method followed by a simple calcination step. Such a unique structure was designed for improving the light harvest, charge transportation/separation, and the performance of photo-electro-chemical (PEC) cells. The properties of the as-synthesized Au/TiO<sub>2</sub> ARHN in PEC cells were investiga ...[more]
