摘要
We describe the self-assembly in solution of a nanoscale architecture from DNA and gold nanoparticles. Also described is the characterization of this nanoscale architecture by transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and near-field scanning optical microscopy. A key finding is that it is possible to image both the DNA and nanoparticle components of the nanoscale architecture.
