Silica films on glass substrates with homogeneously dispersed platinum, gold or silver nanoparticles were prepared by sol‐gel processing mixtures of tetraethoxysilane and {3‐[(2‐aminoethyl)amino]propyl}triethoxysilane complexes of the corresponding metal ions, followed by dip‐coating and hydrogen treatment of the films at elevated temperatures.
