Multi‐Level Self Organization Process For A Parallel Fabrication Of Aligned Metal Structures In Microelectrode Gaps Using DNA And Metal Nanoparticles

A fabrication scheme for the generation of metal nanostructures integrated in microelectrode gap arrays has been developed. The scheme uses self‐organization of molecular units such as long DNA and metal nanoparticles based on specific interactions. Thereby, it is open for parallelization as a typical requirement for future application of this approach. The assembly process is explained and demonstrated, and the results of ultramicroscopic characterization is presented.
