The aim of this microreview is to present recent advances in the preparation of magnetic nanoparticle superstructures from ferrofluids and by nanosphere lithography. Different successes of methods presented in this article to create magnetic nanoparticles will be discussed in view of different requirements of available assembling techniques. Theoretical aspects of nanoparticle assemblies and their assembled layer magnetic properties are not reviewed here. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2005)
