Abstract
764DNA-functionalized gold nanoparticles can be used to induce the formation and control the unit cell parameters of highly ordered face-centered cubic crystal lattices. Nanoparticle spacing increases linearly with longer DNA interconnect length, yielding maximum unit cell parameters of 77 nm and 0.52% inorganic-filled space for the DNA constructs studied. In general, we show that longer DNA connections result in a decrease in the overall crystallinity and order of the lattice due to greater conformational flexibility.
