Abstract

Stable Au NPs were synthesized with Turkevich method and graphene oxide was prepared using improved Hummer method for better functionalization of graphite sheets. Core shell structure of Au@GO was synthesized by changing zeta potential of Au NPs. Band gap of Au NPs was tunable at different concentrations of GO. The Au2@GO UV-Vis absorption peak of Au NPs shifted to a higher wavelength and the energy of band gap was determined by optical absorption of Au NPs. Tauc analysis was used for calculation of optical band gap of Au NPs. The results revealed high applicability of this structure for solar cell fabrication.
