Dip pen nanolithography has been converted into a parallel writing technique by using arrays of tips (see Figure). By slaving multiple tips to a single feedback mechanism, nanoscale molecular patterns can be written over square‐centimeter areas in a matter of minutes, paving the way for high‐speed, industrial‐scale nanolithography.
