Abstract
A method for producing metal structures includes an initiator composition comprising a photocatalytic substance being applied to a substrate. A precursor composition that can be reduced to a metal by the photocatalytic activity of the nanodusts is applied to the layer. A structure template is then applied, partially displacing the precursor composition, and then the substrate is illuminated. Structured metal structures are thus generated.
