Abstract

An interesting and topical question in modern inorganic chemistry is: To what extent are the well‐known chemistry of dispersed metals and the new technique of chemical synthesis with free metal atoms interrelated? Or in other words: Where, do these two facets of metal chemistry meet? In an attempt to glean an answer to this question three important aspects are considered: metal sols, activated metals as powders, and deposits in vacuum processes (evaporation and cathodic sputtering of metals).
