A directed self‐assembly approach is presented to fabricate multiple‐particle arrays on templates with a dedicated design. The SEM image shows deposited 200‐nm, 350‐nm, and 500‐nm polystyrene particles, which are sequentially assembled from aqueous suspensions at designated assembly sites in a size‐selective manner. Scale bar: 2 μm.
