Hot off the press : A Gutenberg‐style nanoprinting technique that exploits electrostatic nanoparticle assembly and DNA‐mediated replication of lithographically defined nanostructures was developed (see picture). Dense nanoparticle loading and high transfer yields were observed over three consecutive printing cycles, proving the potential to fabricate nanoparticle‐based devices at low cost.
