1. A method for plating articles, the method comprising:
providing a plating solution comprising a liquid medium, a precursor species suitable for forming a metallic layer on the articles, and a plurality of luminescent particles suspended in the liquid medium, at least some of which have a diameter of 10 μm or less; and plating the articles within the plating solution, such that the precursor species forms the metallic layer on the articles and the luminescent particles are deposited within the metallic layer while it is formed. |
