Abstract

The article discusses the diverse fabrication method used to decorate nanostructures which are composed of semiconducting, organic, and metallic materials. It states that the nanostructures are utilized as building blocks for complex structures' self-assembly. It mentions that the decoration of the materials based from nanoparticles control its spacing and the balance of the assemblies. Moreover, designing nanostructures can be achieved through DNA linkers which have oglionucleotide strands.
