The catalytic reduction of p-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) over Au nanoparticles can be increased by light illumination. Whether this is caused by the plasmonic effect remains unclear. The present research carried out a careful examination of the effects of light illumination and temperature on the catalytic conversion of 4-NP to 4-AP over Au nanorods. It was seen that light illumination has no effect on the apparent activation energy; this indicates that the catalytic mechanism is unchanged and the activity increase cannot
