Unmasking the potential : A DNA‐templated nanofabrication approach is reported in which various 1D and 2D DNA nanostructures were assembled, and then these structures transformed into corresponding metal nanostructures through metal deposition (see schematic representation). The ease and flexibility of this technique offers a route to overcome the inabilities faced by traditional lithographic techniques.
