A combination of biotechnology and material science enables the immobilization of DNA on carbon nanotubes. After labeling with the heavy atoms platinum and iodine, the double‐stranded DNA can be visualized by high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy. In the picture the arrow highlights the DNA layer.
