Direct Patterning of Engineered Ionic Gold Nanoparticles via Nanoimprint Lithography

Gold nanoparticles are engineered for direct imprinting of stable structures. This imprinting strategy provides access to new device architectures, as demonstrated through the fabrication of a prototype photoswitchable device.
