Light ‐Induced Colloidal Assembly: Photothermal Convection Lithography for Rapid and Direct Assembly of Colloidal Plasmonic Nanoparticles on Generic Substrates (Small 45/2018)

In article number1803055, Dongchoul Kim, Taewook Kang, Inhee Choi, and co ‐workers develop a novel photothermal convection lithography technique for the direct and rapid assembly of colloidal plasmonic nanoparticles on generic substrates. Under resonant light illumination, the colloidal nanoparticles spontaneously move toward the focal point in a photothermally induced convective flow and densely assemble together. Such assemblies can be completed within a minute.
