Popis: Fabrication of ultrathin metal nanostructures usually requires some combination of high-vacuum deposition and postgrowth processing, which precludes access to nanostructures of ultrasmall cross sections for most materials. DNA nanowires (NWs) are versatile insulating templates with intrinsic sub-10 nm line width. Here, we demonstrate a method of DNA template fabrication with precise control over the location and orientation of the DNA NWs. We further demonstrate that this template can be used to support formation of ultrathin metal NWs for derivative nanodevices: a metal is incrementally deposited, and electrical transport measurement is performed
