This invention provides isolated noble metal atoms stabilized in a solution and a method in synthesizing such materials. A block copolymer containing siloxane groups and polyether groups is used as a protective agent to stabilize the reduced isolated noble metal atoms. An aqueous solution containing reducing agents is used as a solvent in the preparation of the material. The weight ratio of precious metal to the protective agent is arbitrary. The invention uses special protective agents to avoid the aggregation of primary isolated atoms to nanoparticles in the synthesis process. The reduced atomic material is distinguished from the known metal nanoparticles and can be used in energy materials, pharmaceutical synthesis, medical materials, catalyst preparation etc. The atomic material provides the building block for the synthesis of number-controlled metal clusters or nanomaterials with the same or different metals.
