Abstract

The invention relates to nanometric structuring and decorating of substrates.
The invention especially relates to surface decorated substrates on which ordered nanometric surface structures are deposited, said structures being comprised of metal and/or metal oxide clusters and/or semiconductor clusters.
The invention also relates to a method for producing and applying said surface decorated structures in order to epoxidize C3-C8-alkenes or to oxidize CO to CO2, and relates to surface structured substrates, especially Pt, Au, GaAs, InyGaAs, AlxGaAs, Si, SiO2, Ge, SixNy, SixGaAs, InP, InPSi, GaInAsP, glass, graphite, diamond, mica, SrTiO3 or the doped modifications thereof, which are nanometrically structured over macroscopic areas. In addition, the invention relates to a method for the production of said surface structured substrates.
The invention is based on the film formation of core shell polymer systems whose core areas are selectively modified or charged with corresponding metal compounds in a solution and construct the structures which are orderly arranged in the thin films. These films which are deposited on the substrate surfaces are selectively etched in such a way that the organic polymer components are completely removed and, as a result, the substrate is decorated in an orderly arrangement by the inorganic residues. The structured films can further serve as masks which make it possible to selectively etch the substrate and to transfer such a structure, said structure given by the film, to the substrate.

Description

Description The present invention relates to structuring and decorating substrates on the n~axiret~ic scale. In particular, the present invention relates to surface-decorated substrates comprising nanometrically ordered surface structures of metal andlor metal-oxide clusters and/or semiconductor clusters, and further to a method for the ~att~rs~ mar~aca~e arr~ y icatirn of said method to epoxidate C, - C, alkenes or to oxidize from CO into CO,. The present invention also relates to surface-structured substrates, in which case the structuring runs nanometrically across macroscopic zones, In particular Pt, Au, GaAs, (n,,GaAs, RIYGaAs, Si, SiO,, Ge, Si"GaAs, InP, InPSi, GalnAsP, glass, graphite, diamond, mica, SrTi(~
or their doped modifications, and a method for their preparation. The invention is based on the film formation of corc~shell polymer systems of which the core zones are modifred, i.e.
charged selectively in solution with corresponding metal compounds. These films, which are precipitated on the structure's surface, may be selectively etched in such a manner that the organic polymer component will be wholly removed, and in the process the substrate will be decorated by means of the inorganic residues, resulting in a regular configuration. Furthermore the structured films may be used as masks, allowing selective substrate etching, and hence to transfer a structure, which is predetermined by the film, into the substrate.
Fine ly dispersed precious-metal catalysts are the basis of important chemical processes such as hydration, selective oxidation of alkenes, alkynes and aromatics to form alcohols, epoxies, ketones, aldehydes and carboxylic acids, oxidation of CO, decomposition of nitrous oxides (N~ into nitrogen and a corresponding oxidation product (H,O, COz), and reaction of methane and carbon dioxide to form a synthesis gas (COIN,).
An irnportant crlter(on for the activity and selectivity of catalysts is that metal particles are deposited on an appropriate, and usually oxidic, support. For instance, while pure gold is, in contrast to members of the platinum group, catalytically inert, in conjunction with an oxidlc support, it provides a highly active catalytic system. The selection of anoxidic support assumes a determinant role in activating and restructuring acatalytically active particulate surface during a catalytic cycle. The support's structure, and its chemical interaction with the precious metal, degrade the activity and selectivity of the catalyst. The ptecipitation of platinum layers onto su~dic or oxidic supports of well-defined surface stnrctures leads to custom-made, highly active catalytic systems. Zeblites of variable but well-defined pore structures cause an increase in active surface and, in conjunction with the "right" precious metal, also to an increase both in selectivity artd in activity. In the case of modem three~vay catalysts, CeQ is used as a prorlnoter along w'tth the precious metal (Pt, Pd, Rh) and the support (S'~, AhO~, ), said CeC~ storing and releasing the oxygen needed for the reaction. The catalytic process is deasively improved (hereby relative to those using catalysts lacking promoters.
t3esides the topography and kind of the support, the sizes, and the mutualspacings, of the precious-metal particles also are critical in regard to the stability and effectiveness of the catalysts.
Hoanrever, high catalytic activity is attained in particular with particles smaller than 5nrn.
An important objective in the further development of heterogeneous catalyst systems relates to the regut~r corr~guration of precious-metal particles that are 1 to 3 nm in size.
Periodic and aperiodic microstructures from several microns to several 100 nm are prepared for electronic and optical components, sensors, and in micro-engin~ering, by mearts of lithography.
Heretofore optical lithography has been very successful in making structures larger than 180 nm. l~s this procedure is a parallel one, which moreover allows high production flow, it has been the unambiguously predominant process for producing microelectronic cirouits. The attainable t7n)nlmum structural size.is dictated by a technical tradeoff between the physically possible resolution and the depth of field required by the equipment. Standard production dimensions of integrated circuits already are less than 350nm. Utilization of X-ray radiation under technically rigorous cond'ttions results in dimensions of about 90 nm.
For some time it has been feasible, using electron or ion beam lithography, to attain nanometric structures, and corresponding equipment is commercially available.
Atom beam frthography controls the interaction of the atom beams with the optical masks, and allows production of large-scale line patterns and various 2D periodic structures with a resolution less than 100 nm. In this procedure atoms are directly d~posited on a substrate, or ate used to modrty organic resists.
This further reduction of geometric dimensions permits not only further mlnialurization, but also permits utilization of dimension-dependent physical properties, such as quantum effects, supertemomagneticproperties, or electron plasma-ion resonance. However, the conversion Into mactoscopic effects or test values requires high uniformity of an ensemble of microscopic structures.
For structures smaller than 1 d0 nm that are of interest in this connection, conventional lithographic procedures are exceedingly difficult and nakedly economical. New procedures must be developed, complementary to the conventional ones, which will depend either on size-controlled growth of inorganic structures or on molecular concepts of organic and macromotecular chemistry. Only a few Implementations are known:
(1) Making use of crystal growth ors GaAs (311 )8 oriented substrates, not only small units, but also well-ordered quantum-dot structures can be prepared. Following the growth of a thin film of InGaAs above a buffet layer ofAIGaAs, the stressed InGaASs ~Im breaks up into small pieces which are spontaneously buried underAIGaAs. In this manner ordered rows of AIGaAs microcrystals with a core of planar InGaAs dots are formed naturally. The sizes and distances between the dots can be independently controlled solely by means of growth parameters. The photoluminescence spectra of the dots are characterized by high efficiency and narrow line widths.
(2) A two- or muki-block copolymer consists of chemically different macromolecular chains, which are covalently connected at the ends or another molecular position (for Instance in the Base of star or graft block copolymers). In most cases different blocks do not mix with one another, and separate themselves into so-called micro-domains.
The size and morphological order of said microdomains is determined in part by the proportions by volume of the individual blocks and by the molecular weight distribution.
Changing the volume proportion of the polymer blocks allows adjustment of different microdomain structures such as spheres, cylinders and lamellas. Typically the periods so attained run between 10 and 200 nm.
Because it is possible to chemically and physically distinguish the ~connecfed macromol~acular blocks, the chemically differentmicrodomains can be selectively charged of marked. This result is far instance attained by absorbing solvents or by a selective reaction with a transition metal. The transition metal frequently is used to achieve polymer contrast in electron microscopy.
Microphase separation also can be observed in ultra-thin films. The critical factortherein is tine extent to which the microdomain structure, and its organization, are affected by the surface and boundary-surface energies and by geometric constriction.
Park et al., in Science 189y, 276, 7401 and also inAppl. Phys. Lett. 1896, 68, 2586), describe transferring the microdomain structure of a two-block copolymer to a silicon nitride substrate beneath. Two distinct techniques based on reactive ion etching allow making holes 20 nm in diameterwith a periodicity of 40nm, and also the corresponding inverse structure. In the same way related ducts 30 nm in diameter and spaced by 15 nm could be transferred to a substrate. In this process, the microdomain, Consisting of the polybutadiene of a polystyrene-b-polybutadiene two-block copolymer, were reacted with ozone gas and dissolved out of the polystyrene matrix or marked with osmium atoms. Hoth procedures resulted in local inhomogeneitieswith respect to etching resistance, thereby in the end allowing use of two-block copolymer patterns as masks for nanometric surface structures. Such patterns, when in the range of a few nanometers, can be used in principle in engineering for making nanometric structures and as lithographic masks.

However the procedures described in the state of the art incur the drawback that they are economically prohibiYrve and/or are restricted to very special systems.
Accordingly it is the objective of the present invention to develop a versatile concept, based on organic or macromolecular chemistry, which allows nanometric structuring and decoration of substrates. In particular, the Invention makes available a method that allows nanometric surface decoration of substrates by means of ordered deposition of defined metal or metahoxide Clusters on a substrate, and furthermore substrates of which the surfaces are decorated with said defined metal or metal-oxide clusters that are suitable as catalysts In the epoxidation of C, - CB or in the oxidation of CO to COs. Such a method in particular allows for the controlled preparation of compound clusters from acatalytically active metal component and a metal oxide, the relative proportions being systematicallyvariable.
Furthermore an economic, i.e. an efficient method of the invention based on the molecular concepts of organic or macromolecul8rchemistry, is provided, which allowsrtanorrietric surface structuring substrates, that is preferably in the range under 20 nm, preferably lass than 5 nm, across macroscopic zones. The invention also offers structur~d substrates in the lowemanometric range that are characterized by a large depth to-width ratio, that is, the heights and depths of these structures are many times larger than the lateral dimensions_ This problem is solved by the invention by the embodiments set forth in the claims.
tn particular, in a first aspect of !he invention, a method is created to manufacture surface-decorated substrates, comprising the following stages:
(a) introducing a polymer into an appropriate solvent, while forming a dissolved core-shell polymer system, (b) charging at least part of the polymer cores with one or more identical or different metal compounds, (c) depositing the charged tote-shell polymer system prepar~i in stage (b) in the form of a film on at least one side of a substrate in such manner that said core-shell polymer system is corr~gured in a regular structure in the film, and 52960.014 (d) removing th8 polymer, producing the core-shell polymer system, while generating metal clusters and/or clusters of metal compounds on the substrate surface, w'tthout significant changes in the structure produced by the core-shell polymer system.
In a preferred embodiment of this method for surface-decorating substances in the nanometer range, and before stage c), metal compounds) contained in the pohymer core is (are) chemically treated and/or irradiated by high-energy u.v., x-rays or electron beams, whether in solution or in the film, and are converted into metal or a metal oxide. !n the course of stage (d) of this method of the invention, the polymer is removed preferably by etching, reduction or oxidation. Etching by means of a reactive plasma, preferably an oxygen plasma, is especially preferred.
This method of the first embodiment of the invention surprisingly allows orderly precipitation, in art orderly and very simple manner, of discrete metal clusters or metal-oxide dusters onto different substrates, while forming regular, i,e.
ordered,nanometric structures.
Even semiconducting clusters, such as Si and Ge, can be prepared in very simple manner by the method of the invention. Moreoverthe method of the invention, usingmicellarsystems from amphiphilic block copolymers, allows oldered deposition of minute, catalytically highly active metal particles on nearly arbitrary substrates.
A second embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for preparing surface-structured substrates, which comprises the following stages:
(a) irrtroduclng a polymer lrrtcs an appropriate solvent, while forming a dissolved care-shell polymer system, (b) charging at least some of the polymer cores with one or several, identical or different metal compounds, (c) depositing the core-shell polymer system prepared in stage (b) in the form of a film on at feast one side of a substrate in such a manner that the core~shell polymer system is configured as a regular structure irt the film, and (d) subJecfing the substrate prepared in stage (c) to a reactive ion etching procedure, to art ion sputtering procedure, or to a wet chemical procedure, or a combination thereof, the film deposited on the substrate being removed and the regular structure produced by the core-shell polymer system being converted as a function of the-kind of Charge of the polymer cores as well as of the duration of the reactiv~ ion etching and/or ion sputtering andlor the wet-chemical procedure into substrate relief structure.
In a preferred embodiment of this method of the invention tonanometrically surf8ce-structure substrates, at least part of the metal compounds contained in the polymer cores is inverted, before film deposition or following film formation, by chemicaltreatment and/or high-energy irradiation such as u.v., x-rays or electron beams, into one or more metal particles and/or metal-oxide particles in each polymer core.
This method of the irtVention allows manufacturing of such surface structures as holes, strips, troughs and dot-IiKe elevations of a width or diameter preferably between 1~ and lOQnm, and a depth, or height that may be a multiple of the lateral dimensions, in a corresponding substrate. These surface structures also are called relief structures of the substrate.
The expression "core-Shell polymer system" herein denotes for instance macromolecular amphphile$ which associate in aqueous or organic solution and may form well-defined spherical or rod-shaped micelles, lamellas, vesicles or complex aggregates.
Consequently, the invention also includes systems generally called host/guest systems wherein a moleurtar cavity, i.e. a molecule inner space, namely tf~e polymer core, generated by the polymer (host compound), can be charged, i.e. complexed with a guest compound, that is a particular metal compound.
The polymer used )n the method of the invention, which is produced in solution of such a core-shell-polymer system, preferably is selected from block copolymers, graft copolymers, mil~oa~n st~l~xs, , star polymers with different branches,dendritic polymers, micro gel-particles, star block copolymers and core-shell latex polymers.
More preferred are the following polymers, namely polystyrene-b-polyethyleneoxide, polysfyrenez-b-poly(2-vinylpyridine), polystyrene-b-poly(4 vinylpyridine) polymer or a mixture 52960-p14 thereof. The polystyrene block therein however mgy be replaced also by other non-polar polymers, for instance polyisopropene, polybutadiene, polymethylmethacrylate or other polymethacrylates. The second, or polar block in such a two-block copolymer may be one ~nrhieh interacts as strongly as possible with the particular metal compound being used. Illustrati~rely such are polyacrylic acid, polymethacrylic acid, amino-substituted polystyrenes, polyacrylates or polymethacrylates, amino-substituted polydienes, polyethylene-imines, saponified polyoxazolines or hydrogenatedpolyacrylonitrile. The first block also may he a polar polymer, provided howevet than then the metal compound is selected in such manner that foremost , i.e, selectively, it interacts with the second polar block.
Typically the above polymer systems are dissolved in a selective solvent, fot instance toluene, ai a rate from about 10'~ to about 100 mg/ml, preferably about 5 mg/ml. Following several, for instance 12 hours approximately, the solution is reacted w'tth one or more metal compound$ in stage (b) of the method of the invention and then is strongly agitated, for instance for about 24 h, in order to charge at least some of the polymer cores, formed by the core-shell polymer system, with the metal compound(s).
For example, such metal compounds are compounds of Au, Pt, Pd,Ag, In, Fe, Zr, AI, Co, Ni, Ga, Sn, zn, Ti, 8i and Ge in the corresponding oxidation stages or mixtures thereof. Specific examples are HAuCI,, MeAuCI,, where Me denotes an alkali metal, HzPtCh , Pd(Ac)a,Ag(Ac), AgNO,, InCI, , FeCI, , Ti(OR),, TiCI,, Ti CI, , CoCI, , I~iCtZ, SiCI,, GeCI,, GaH, , ZnEt,, AI(OR), , zr(OR)~, where R is a straight-chain or a branched-C~ - C8 alkyt residue,ferrocene, Zeise salt or SnBu,H or mixtures thereof. Preferably the metal compound is HAuCI,, Typical inputs are 0,01 to 2.0 molecular precursor units per monomer unit of the polar polymer block.
In stage (c) of the method of the invention, the deposition of the film is carried out in single or multiple layers onto at least one side of a substrate, preferably by dipping, pouring, SPA coating or by adsorption from a diluted solution. Mare preferably however the deposition of single or mukiple layers is carried out by dipping inta dilute solutions. For example the films are produced by drawing a substrate out of the solution at speeds, for instance from 0.007 mmlmin to 2 m/min. Such macroscopically covering films have a layer thickness of, for instance, one or more charged two-block copolymer_micelles, that is from 5 to 800nm. An exemplary mono-micellar film is therefore as thick as a micelle. The polymer cores, that is for instance the micelles or corresponding molecule cavities, charged with the metal compound and/or the metal particles, are in the process precipitated substantially intact, while a regular structure Is being formed in the film. The polymer cores, which are charged either with a metal compound as a precursor for the reduction to the corresponding metal, or already are charged with the corresponding metal particles or rhetal-oxide particles, arrange themselves in this process on their own into a regular structure on the substrate surface.
Rpplicable substrates are precious metals, oxidic glasses, monocrystalline or mutticrystalline substrates, semiconductors, metals with or without a inactivated surface, insulators or in general substrates that are highly resistant to the etching procedures below. In particularthese are Pt, Au, GaAs, InyGaAs, A~GaAs, Sl, SiO~, Ge, Si~NY, SixGaA,s, lnp, GaInAsP, glass, graphite, diamond, mica, SrTICI~, and their doped modifiCCaations_ The applicable sub$trates may be flat, laminar (far instance mica flakes of a length < 15p. ) and also those with laminar, curved (convex or concave) surfaces (for instance microglass balls or mlcroquarta balls of diameters fot instance 1 to 80 ~).
The coating thickness is adjusted in a metallic precursor stage in solution by means of the molecular weight of the amphiphilic block Copolymers, by the size of the particles and also by the degree of polymerization of the (for instance micelle-forming) block, forming a regular structure, also by the magnitude of the charge, the particle size for instance being 1 !0 20nm and the inter particle distance being 20 to 400 nm, preferably 20 to 200 nm.
The cluster uniformity attained by the method of the first embodiment of the present Invention, and ifs regular configuration, is achieved by means of the homogeneous distributicins of the salts in solution on the micelles and by the uniform size distribution of the two-block copolymer micelles (Fig. 1 ).
This structure, i.e. the ordering, produced by the core-shell polymer system, with at least some 52980.014 of the polymer cores being selectiv~ly marked or charged by one or more metal compound(s), is not degraded in the particular ensuing stage (d).
A9 already discussed above, the polymer produdng the care-shell polymer system in the manner of step (d) of the method of the first aspect of this invention, with concomitant generation of metal clusters and/or clusters or metal compounds on the substrate surface, is completely removed without significantly changing the structure or configuration pf the dusters on the substrate surface as erected by the core-shell polymer system, In the process, the polymer Is removed, for instance by etching, reductioh or oxidation. These procedures also may be carried out at higher temperatures; especially etching is carried out using a reactive plasma, preferably an oxygen plasma. Furthermore, reactive gas plasma procedures (CFA, H~ SF~ or oxidation in an oxidizing atmosphere at raised temperatute, etching by high-energy irradiation, in particular by electromagnetic beams or partide beams such as electron beams, orpyrolysis, also may be used to remove the polymer enclosure.
The above techniques used in step (d) of the first embodiment of the method of the invention remove, In a residue-free manner, the organic polymer enclosure at the desired site or in the desired zone, and convert the metallic precursor stage into its crystalline Me orMeO"
modifications In the form of agglomerates of small Me arMeO, particles, the so-called clusters.
Depending on the metal compounds used in stage (b), the precipitated dusters are, in particular, oxygen-resistant precious metals such as Au, Pt, Pd or oxides, for instance semicondueting oxides such as TiOZ, or magnetic particles such as certain modigcativns of Fe,O" Fe, !vo or Ni.

and Pt/graphite will succeed by mixing a solution of a polymer system used in the manner of the invention with a mixture of the particular metal compounds.
For example, to separate "naked" metal/metal-oxide clusters, the micelles containing metal Baits produced by one of the above polymer systems are deposited in the form of an ultrathin film on the selected substrate and thereupon the polymer sheath is selectively removed by oxygen-plasma treatment, bum-off in an oxygen rich atmosphere, pyrolysls or by other reducing conditions such as in a hydrogen plasma.
In this treatment, the transition-metal compound is converted into the elemental metal or, under oxidizing conditions, into metal-oxide particles. The thermal reduction or the conversion of precious-metal compounds in an oxygen atmosphere produces a narrow particle distribution similar to that resulting from burning the polymer by means of the above described plasma process (F)g. 2).
The above described method allows preparing clusters of various sites in particular of gold, platinum, pa~t(adium, nickel, titanium dioxide, iron oxide and cobalt oxide.
SurPaoetaste corroborate the preCipltationfor instance of Au, Pt, In, Co, Pd, TiQ Fe,g as well as of the particular mixed systems, in particularAu/F~O, , AulCoO, AuCo, 04, ~r~n0, AuTiO" I~u2rQ,, Au/Al=O, , Au/In,O, , Pd/AIxO, , PdZrO,, Pt/Al=O, and Pt/graphite. The cluster diameters can be adjusted for instance to be between 4.5 and 9 00 nm by varying the input weights of the carrespondingmetal compound as precursorto the correspondingsoluliori of the core-sell polymer system. The periodicity, that Is the surface configuration of the MeJMeO~
clusters regularly arrayed on the substrate surface can be adjusted to be between approximately nm, preferably 20 nm and 400 nm, by the degree of polymerization of the initially used polymer sy.$tem.
Surprisingly the method of the invention, which Is based on the self-organization of a core-shell polymer system acting as a template for the regular precipitation of Me clusters and/or MeOx, clusters, allows manufacturing in vent' simple and economical manner nanometric surface-decorated substrates.
Nanometric, surface-deeoratedsubstrates, containing metal clusters and/or metal-oxide clusters and produced by the method of the invention comprise at least on one side clusters of metal atoms and/or metal compounds of a diameter preferably 0.5 to 1 OOnm and mutually apart preferably up to 400 nm which are regularly arrayed on the substrate surface.
In particular these nanometric clusters may be clusters of gold, platinum, palladium, titanium dioxide, iron oxide and cobalt oxide. Furthermore the surface-decorated substrates of the invention may contain clusters of, for instance, Au/FeZO, , AuICoO, Au/Co, 0,,, AuIZnO, AuITi4,, Au/ZrOZ, Au/A1,0, , Au/1n,0, , Pd/AlsO, , PdIZrO~ Pt/graphite, or Pt/A1,0, . Preferred substrates are Pt, Au~aAs, In"GaAs, AIxGaAs, S1, SiOb Ge, Si"N~,. S~,GaAs, InP, InPSi, GaInAsP, glass, graphite, diamond, mica, SrTiO, or their doped modifications.
The substrates prepared by the method of the invention and decorated withnanometric mefial clusters and/or metal-oxide cluster, that is, nanometric particles, are characterized by their high uniformity and also by their high heal resistance. When annealing gold particles 7.5 nm high, only a slight decrease in height was observed even after prolonged thermal loading.
This condition is shown in Fig. 3. The slight decrease .above 400°C can be explained by the conversion of primarily formed gold oxide into gold.
After i 2 hour annealing at T = 800'C, the ordering remains preserved, as can be seen in ~t (atxmic force microscope) pictures (Fig. 4).
Besides high thermal strength, the nanometric particles also show high resistance to chemicals. Once particle formation has been completed, the nanometric clusters ate stable relative to solutions containing sulfuric acid and chlorides, allowing advantageous chemical reactions at these nanometric precious-metal clusters.
In one implementation of the rt~ethod of the Invention, the block-copolymer micelles are also charged with different metal salts in solution. As shown by spectroscopic electron-energy losses, these mixed systems are incorporated into the micelles in a nighty dispersed manner.
Each micelle also is homogeneously charged with both inorganic components. The precipitation of the invention of the hybrid systems and the ensuing gas-plasmatreatment res111t in "naked" highly disperse mixed clusters such as Au/Ti0" AuIFes4, or AuICo,O, on different substrates_ Fig. 5 reproduces high-power pictures of manoftticellar films following gas-plasma treatment, and shows regularly arrayed nanometric clusters of identical sizes.

Another object of the present invention relates to using the above defined aurfac~
decorated substrates In the epoxidation of C, - Cdalkenes or in the oxidation of CO to COs.
As already mentioned, catalytic oxidation of CO into COZ is an important field of application for precious metals deposited on metal oxides (Au/T i0~, Au/Fe,O, , or AuICo,O,)_ This process is significant, tot instance, in the field of fuel cells.
Catalysis cakes place at the boundary surface df precious-metaflsupport. In particular as regards methanol-driven fuel cells, hydrogen is obtained by means of the so-.called steam-reforming process. The generated products are 75 % hydrogen, 25 % carbon dioxide and traces of carbon monoxide.
However the carbon-.monoxide residue poisons the anode catalysts. Therefore the CO
content must be decreased by selective oxidation into COs In general, high catalytic activity at love consumption of precious metal is desired. This goal is attained in the invention by using the smallest possible particles and hence increased active surface and maximal boundary surface in heterogeneous catalysis between precious metal and metal oXide.
As shown in Table 1 below, the specific catalyst strongly affects the activation energy of oxidation.
Table 1: activation energy for the CO -,~ CO, for heterogeneous systems Precious metal Support Activation Temperature C

Pd Al,O3 or ZrO, .._ 150 -200 graphite or Als O, 150 - 200 Au AlZ O, 150 - 200 Au TiO, about 80 Au/Fez O, or AulfiO, at 80°C are about as catalytically active and selecfive as PtlAI,O, at 154-200°C. As regards methanol fuel cells in particular, an activation temperature less than 100°C is fundamental.
Besides hydrogenation, precious-metal particles also are significant as oxidation catalysts. Ethylene oxidation by molecular oxygen at silver colloids is used industrially to 14 5~~14 manufacture ethylene oxide. Salts of alkali -(preferably) cesium compounds or alkaline earth metals are used as promoters. However, this procedure is restricted to the ethylene-ethylaneoxide system and so far has not been applicable to longer-chain alkenes, In this respect the European patent application 0 709 360 A1 describes metaUmetal-oxide- catalysts prepared by the conventional co-precipitation method and used in the epoxidation of higher alkenes.
Within the Scope of the above defined method of the invention in its first embodiment, heterogeneous catalysts are manufactured by depositing the micelle-stabif~d precious-metal particles on an oxidic su~ort (for instance SiO~, said catalysis being characterized, r~lative to homogeneous systems, by high stabif~ty, activity and selectivity and by requiring little consumption of precious metals while offering high catalytic activity. By using the block copolymer micelles of the above-defined method of the invention, the particle size and the inter-particle distance and the ensuing active surface may be accurately adjusted.
On account of the residue-fnae removal of the polymer and the simultaneous conversion of the Metal salts by the gas plasma procedure, there result well-defined metaUmetal-oxide compound systems on different substrates such as mica, glass or quartz.
(n order to attain good film formation, the Iniceltes are for instance deposited on a planar substrate (Fig. 6). I=of example the supports used may bemicroglass balls or microquartz balls or mica flakes having a smooth surfiace, because the speck surface of the support and the quantity of precious metal can be accurately computed for such micro-balls.
The ptoportion by weight of precious metal in this procedure is less than in conventional powder catalysts.

Typical catalysts based on palladium/supports have values of 1-10 %
precious metal.
When using block copolymer micelles, Such a high content in precious metals cannot be attained, however it is not absolutely required because the size and inter particle distances can be exactly adjusted using this concept. As a result, even a lov~ler quantity of precious metals Will resuk in the same or similar catalytic activity.
As regards the second embodiment of the method of the invention, the input, which is uniformly distributed on the polymer cores, can be converted in solution by reduction or oxidation and/or by high-energy radiation, into each single polymer core, into single or several metal particles or metal-oxide particles, or may be precipitated by adding an appropriate component in the polymer core, the particular core-shell structure of the polymer system directly affecting the size of the particles formed in the core-shell polymer systems.
In this procedure at least part of the metal compounds contained in the polymer cores are converted in solution by reduction or oxidation into one or several metal particles) andlor metal-oxide particles) in each single polymer core to such an extent that part of the charged polymer cores contain one or several metal atoms arldlot one or several metal compounds. If, for instance, HAuCI, is used as the metal compound, then the Au~' ions charging the polymer cores of the particular core-shell polymer system can be reduced in solution by reduction or oxidation to such an extent that some of the charged polymer cores contain one or more gold atoms and one or more Au~ ions. If such a reduction of the metal compounds charging the polymer cores is carried out in solution, then the reducing agent is preferably hydrazine.
In stage (d) of the second embodiment of the method of the invention, the film together uv'tth the substrate at least partly covered by the film is subjected to reactive ion etching, to ion sputtering, or to a wet-chemical procedure or a combination thereof. The sttuctures precipitated onto the substrate surface act as masks, which are transferred into the corresponding substrate by etching, the film deposited on the substrate being removed in residue-free manner at the desired site or zone, and the regular structure produced by the core-shell polymer systerrl being converted into a substrate topographical structure because of, and as a function of, the kind of charge on the polymer core and the duration of r~active ion etching and/or ion sputtering andlor the wet-chemical procedure. Preferably ion etching is used with argon, ozone, oxygen and their mixtures, and even more preferred is ion sputtering_ Depending on the duration of etching, and as a function of the polymer core charges, the film deposited on the substrate is etched away In such manner that as a result the substrate being used also is removed, as a result of which surface-structured substrates produced by the second aspect of the method of the invention, which have a relief structure of lateral dimensions between preferably 1 and 100 nm across macroscopic zones, and in particular holes, troughs, strips, dot heights as well as their inverse structures with lateral dimensions illustratively between 1 and 100 nm, also may be produced in the substrates across macroscopic zones.
The structures' heights and depths so attained may be a multiple, for instance 20-fold to 100-fold, of the lateral dimensions.
If for instance, on the one hand micelles charged with gold-atoms, and on the other hand micelles or molecular cavities charged with gold-compounds, are present in precipitated form on the substrate next to uACharged micelles, then, depending on charge, and in selective manner, first the gold-atom charged micelles will be etched away, far instance byAr sputtering, while for instance forming holes. Then the uncharged micelles, and lastly the gold-compound charged micelles will be etched away. The result is formation of, for instance, islands, as a result of which the predetermined, regular stnrcture present in the precipitated film, and acting as a mask, are transferred by etching into the corresponding substrate in the form of a relief topography.
