spectra show that the films are transparent at 70% in visible range. The room temperature photoluminescence<br />
(PL) measurements of ZnO-SiO 2 composite films show UV emission (3.16 eV) which is generate by<br />
annealing in oxygen atmosphere. The thickness of the films annealing was measured by ellipsometry, this<br />
value obtained was between 640 and 660 nm.<br />

Keywords: gold, nanoparticles, active sites, CO oxidation, alcohol oxidation.<br />
Supported gold nanoparticles are well-known as active catalysts for various important processes.<br />
Structural and electronic properties of gold nanoparticles supported on Ce, Ti and Fe-modified hexagonal<br />
mesoporous silica (HMS) were studied by XRD, TEM, FTIR, UV-vis. spectroscopy, XPS, N 2 adsorption and<br />
EDS techniques. These materials were used as heterogeneous catalysts for CO oxidation as well as liquidphase<br />
aerobic oxidation of alcohols to al<strong>de</strong>hy<strong>de</strong>s. A comparative analysis of spectroscopic and catalytic data<br />
allows suggesting that Au n δ+ clusters or/and Au + ions are responsible for the activity in the low-temperature<br />
region (< 200 o C); neutral Au n clusters are active in the range 200-400 o C; and gold nanoparticles may catalyze<br />
the high-temperature CO oxidation. The experiments also showed that nanosized gold supported on pure<br />
HMS and on HMS modified by Ce, Ti or Fe oxi<strong>de</strong>s is an effective catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols to<br />
al<strong>de</strong>hy<strong>de</strong>s and esters, for example, benzyl alcohol to benzal<strong>de</strong>hy<strong>de</strong> and methyl benzoate. The activation effect<br />
of modifiers seems to be associated with their influence on the electronic state of the supported gold.<br />

The preparation of catalysts by the microemulsion method has allowed the <strong>de</strong>velopment of supported<br />
active phases with interesting properties in their catalytic performance This method provi<strong>de</strong>s nanostructured<br />
supported metals with interesting applications as heterogeneous catalysts. The water/oil microemulsion uses<br />
surfactant molecules to stabilize the water/oil interface of nanosized water droplets, that are dispersed in an<br />
organic solvent. These water droplets consist in an aqueous solution of the metals precursors. In this work,<br />
NiMo and CoMo /Al 2 O 3 catalysts were prepared by this method and the influence of the metal content was<br />
evaluated in the HDS of dibenzothiophene. The synthesis procedure was studied in or<strong>de</strong>r to establish the set<br />
