Metallization via cold plasma reduction of supported metal precursors is proposed as an alternative approach to fabricating thin metal layers. The various stages of the procedure are followed by a combination of analytical techniques, providing insight into the processes occurring. For example, the interaction illustrated in the Figure is detected after the first step, which involves spin‐coating gold( III ) chloride onto a nylon 66 substrate.
