Novel Catalysts of Au/SiO₂ Hybrid Nanorod Arrays for the Direct Formation of Hydrogen Peroxide

A simple and efficient method for fabricating self-standing Au/SiO2 hybrid nanorod arrays is demonstrated. Highly dispersed uniform Au NPs are immobilized on SiO2 nanorod arrays and show high catalytic activity for the direct formation of H2O2 from H2 and O2.
