DNA‐conjugated triangular gold nanoprisms are synthesized and characterized to determine the factors that allow adsorbtion of alkylthiol‐modified oligonucleotides on different facets of an anisotropic gold nanoparticle (see image). Face‐selective DNA‐ligand adsorption processes are time‐dependent and can be exploited to selectively immobilize DNA on the different edges and faces of the particle.
