Free‐standing multilayer gold‐nanoparticle containing films with an overall thickness ranging from 20–70 nm have been fabricated. These films are compliant, robust, and long‐living, and can be manufactured very time‐efficiently with spin‐assisted layer‐by‐layer assembly with an exceptionally high level of uniformity and integrity, which facilitate their ability to sustain multiple elastic deformations (see Figure).
