Biotemplated Lithography of Inorganic Nanostructures (BLIN) for Versatile Patterning of Functional Materials
Here, we present a highly parallel fabrication method dubbed biotemplated lithography of inorganic nanostructures (BLIN) that enables large-scale versatile substrate patterning of metallic and semi...
DNA Origami-Mediated Substrate Nanopatterning of Inorganic Structures for Sensing Applications
Structural DNA nanotechnology provides a viable route for building from the bottom-up using DNA as construction material. The most common DNA nanofabrication technique is called DNA origami, and it allows high-throughput synthesis of accurate and highly versatile structures with nanometer-level precision. Here, it is shown how the spatial information of DNA origami can be transferred to metallic nanostructures by combining the bottom-up DNA origami with the conventionally used top-down lithography approaches. This allows fabrication of billions of tiny nanostructures in one step onto selected substrates. The method is demonstrated using bowtie DNA origami to create metallic bowtie-shaped an…
