A reliable nanofabrication concept to engineer metallic nanometric gap structures and to incorporate silver nanoparticles within the gaps utilizing a combination of self‐assembly strategies and electrochemical oxidation lithography is developed. The approach uses the differences in oxidation kinetics of n ‐octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) monolayer and bilayer structures. The processes are investigated in detail and form the basis for a new nanofabrication process.
