A new glue : Supramolecular assembly of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, see picture) mediated by halogen bonding interactions is demonstrated. The primary time‐dependent assembly of functionalized AuNPs controls the inner structure, whereas the appearance of the overall hybrid structures can be engineered by varying the concentration of the organic linker.
