Organic dyes influence on structural, optical, and pH sensing characteristics of gold-supported titania nanoparticles at low temperature

In arrears to pH sensing functions, gold-supported titania nanoparticles (AuTNPs) are synthesized at a low temperature 90 °C by the sol-gel technique. Two different dyes phenol red and creosol red dye are encapsulated in AuTNPs nanocomposite. Void-free AuTNPs exhibited the particle size 45 nm which...
