Photocatalytic NaAuCl4 reduction by ethanol with the participation of ZnO nanocrystals results in the formation of gold nanocrystals with the mean size of 25–30 nm. The strongly pronounced autocatalytic character of the process reflects the fact that the ZnO–Au nanostructure produced at the initial...
