A simple yet robust strategy is developed to yield the self‐assembly of DNA by exploiting controlled stick‐slip motions and “coffee ring” effect of DNA solutions in a unique confined geometry, as H. Y. Woo, S. W. Hong, and co‐workers report on page 4254. A number of highly ordered concentric ring‐like superstructures composed of DNA are spontaneously formed, which can be employed as a “template” to tightly organize cationic conjugated polyelectrolytes alongside the DNA strands.
