An efficient, simple and new procedure has been performed to synthesis Au/TiO2 nanocomposite thin film on solid surface of ITO by seed-mediated of liquid phase deposition (LPD) method. The deposition of Au seed was applied by our previously reported seed-mediated growth procedure. The solution was prepared by mixing HAuCl4 and (NH4) 2TiF6 successfully deposited on to ITO substrate containing Au seed. After one hour well adhered film was obtained by mentioned approach of synthesis and nonocomposite with spherical rod like networks has been successfully grown. The resulting nanocomposites were confirmed by ultraviolet-visible (Uv-Vis) absorption spectroscopy. Further characterization and morphology was checked by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).
