Probable steps related with complex formation (ion-ion mechanism). (a) Particles of L-M-L complexes are spread towards the substrate.(b) The complex is stuck to the substrate as an LML composite, still being in the solution. (c) LML grains grow with the formation of more complexes and absorption. (d) Grains form the film by sticking to each other (M: metal, L: ligand) [12].
