A sol–gel method is used to prepare thin films from titanium oxide and TiO2 nanocomposites with noble metal (Au or Ag) nanoparticles. Properties of the films are investigated by XRF method, Auger electron spectroscopy, raster electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence. Influence of the noble metal (Au or Ag) nanoparticles and initial precursor on the properties of films is determined. The optimal conditions for the formation of films with a good adhesion to the cover glass are found. Effect of the microwave radiation on the coacervation of the colloidal system is revealed.
Key words: sol–gel method, titanium oxide, anatase, thin films, nanoparticles of noble metals.
