Abstract
DNA-templated nanofabrication presents an innovative approach to creating self-assembled nanoscale metal-semiconductor-based Schottky contacts, which can advance nanoelectronics. Herein, we report the successful fabrication of metal-semiconductor Schottky contacts using a DNA origami scaffold. The scaffold, consisting of DNA strands organized into a specific linear architecture, facilitates the competitive arrangement of Au and CdS nanorods, forming heterojunctions, and addresses previous limitations in low electrical conductance making DNA-templated electronics with semiconductor nanomaterials. Electroless gold plating extends the Au nanorods and makes the necessary electrical contacts. Tungsten electrical connection lines are further created by electron beam-induced deposition. Electrical characterization reveals nonlinear Schottky barrier behavior, with electrical conductance ranging from 0.5 × 10-4 to 1.7 × 10-4 S. The conductance of these DNA-templated junctions is several million times higher than with our prior Schottky contacts. Our research establishes an innovative self-assembly approach with applicable metal and semiconductor materials for making highly conductive nanoscale Schottky contacts, paving the way for the future development of DNA-based nanoscale electronics.

Abstract
DNA origami is a powerful tool to fold 3-dimensional DNA structures with nanometer precision. Its usage, however, is limited as high ionic strength, temperatures below ∼60 °C, and pH values between 5 and 10 are required to ensure the structural integrity of DNA origami nanostructures. Here, we demonstrate a simple and effective method to stabilize DNA origami nanostructures against harsh buffer conditions using [PdCl4]2-. It provided the stabilization of different DNA origami nanostructures against mechanical compression, temperatures up to 100 °C, double-distilled water, and pH values between 4 and 12. Additionally, DNA origami superstructures and bound cargos are stabilized with yields of up to 98%. To demonstrate the general applicability of our approach, we employed our protocol with a Pd metallization procedure at elevated temperatures. In the future, we think that our method opens up new possibilities for applications of DNA origami nanostructures beyond their usual reaction conditions.

Abstract
Precise control of the structure of metallic nanomaterials is critical for the advancement of nanobiotechnology. As DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) can readily modify various moieties, such as sulfhydryl, carboxyl, and amino groups, using DNA as a directing ligand to modulate the morphology of nanomaterials is a promising strategy. In this review, we focus on the use of DNA as a template to control the morphology of metallic nanoparticles and their biomedical applications, discuss the use of DNA for the metallization of gold and silver, explore the factors that influence the process, and outline its biomedical applications. This review aims to provide valuable insights into the DNA-guided growth of nanomaterials. The challenges and future directions are also discussed.

Abstract
DNA origami molds allow a shape-controlled growth of metallic nanoparticles. So far, this approach is limited to gold and silver. Here, the fabrication of linear palladium nanostructures with controlled lengths and patterns is demonstrated. To obtain nucleation centers for a seeded growth, a synthesis procedure of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) using Bis(p-sulfonatophenyl)phenylphosphine (BSPP) both as reductant and stabilizer is developed to establish an efficient functionalization protocol of the particles with single-stranded DNA. Attaching the functionalized particles to complementary DNA strands inside DNA mold cavities supports subsequently a highly specific seeded palladium deposition. This provides rod-like PdNPs with diameters of 20-35 nm of grainy morphology. Using an annealing procedure and a post-reduction step with hydrogen, homogeneous palladium nanostructures can be obtained. With the adaptation of the procedure to palladium the capabilities of the mold-based tool-box are expanded. In the future, this may allow a facile adaptation of the mold approach to less noble metals including magnetic materials such as Ni and Co.

Abstract
Directed placement of DNA origami could play a key role in future integrated nanoelectronic devices. Here we demonstrated the site-selective attachment of DNA origami on gold dots formed using a pattern transfer method through block copolymer self-assembly. First, a random copolymer brush layer is grafted on the Si surface and then poly (styrene-b-methylmethacrylate) block copolymer is spin-coated to give a hexagonal nanoarray after annealing. UV irradiation followed by acetic acid etching is used to remove the PMMA, creating cylindrical holes and then oxygen plasma etching removes the random copolymer layer inside those holes. Next, metal evaporation, followed by lift-off creates a gold dot array. We evaluated different ligand functionalization of Au dots, as well as DNA hybridization to attach DNA origami to the nanodots. DNA-coated Au nanorods are assembled on the DNA origami as a step towards creating nanowires and to facilitate electron microscopy characterization of the attachment of DNA origami on these Au nanodots. The DNA hybridization approach showed better DNA attachment to Au nanodots than localization by electrostatic interaction. This work contributes to the understanding of DNA-templated assembly, nanomaterials, and block copolymer nanolithography. Furthermore, the work shows potential for creating DNA-templated nanodevices and their placement in ordered arrays in future nanoelectronics.

Abstract
Despite the reversible condensation properties of DNA, DNA metallization during controlled conformational transitions has been rarely investigated. We perform dynamic metallization of spherically condensed DNA nanoparticles (DNA NPs) via a globule-to-coil transition. A positively charged new Au3+ reagent is prepared via ligand-exchange of conventional complex Au3+ ions, which was used to synthesize spherically condensed DNA NPs simply based on the fundamental electrostatic and coordinative interactions between DNA and Au3+ions. Interestingly, the size of the Au3+-condensed DNA NPs (Au3+-DNA NPs) and the type of reducing agents lead to the formation of different Au nanostructures with unprecedented morphologies (cracked NPs, bowl-shaped NPs, and small NPs), owing to the controlled conformational changes in the Au3+-DNA NPs during metallization. The condensed DNA NPs play significant roles for Au nanostructures as (1) the dynamic template for the synthesis, (2) the reservoir and supply of Au3+ for the growth, and (3) the surface stabilizer. The synthesized Au nanostructures are remarkably stable against high ionic strength and exhibit catalytic activities and excellent SERS properties. This is the first study on the morphological control and concomitant dynamic metallization of spherically condensed DNA, proposing new synthetic routes for bioinorganic nanomaterials.

Abstract
Advances in DNA nanotechnology allow the design and fabrication of highly complex DNA structures, uisng specific programmable interactions between smaller nucleic acid building blocks. To convey this concept to the fabrication of metallic nanoparticles, an assembly platform is developed based on a few basic DNA structures that can serve as molds. Programming specific interactions between these elements allows the assembly of mold superstructures with a range of different geometries. Subsequent seeded growth of gold within the mold cavities enables the synthesis of complex metal structures including tightly DNA-caged particles, rolling-pin- and dumbbell-shaped particles, as well as T-shaped and loop particles with high continuity. The method further supports the formation of higher-order assemblies of the obtained metal geometries. Based on electrical and optical characterizations, it is expected that the developed platform is a valuable tool for a self-assembly-based fabrication of nanoelectronic and nanooptic devices.

Abstract
Bottom-up fabrication using DNA is a promising approach for the creation of nanoarchitectures. Accordingly, nanomaterials with specific electronic, photonic, or other functions are precisely and programmably positioned on DNA nanostructures from a disordered collection of smaller parts. These self-assembled structures offer significant potential in many domains such as sensing, drug delivery, and electronic device manufacturing. This review describes recent progress in organizing nanoscale morphologies of metals, semiconductors, and carbon nanotubes using DNA templates. We describe common substrates, DNA templates, seeding, plating, nanomaterial placement, and methods for structural and electrical characterization. Finally, our outlook for DNA-enabled bottom-up nanofabrication of materials is presented.

Abstract
The surface-assisted hierarchical assembly of DNA origami nanostructures is a promising route to fabricate regular nanoscale lattices. In this work, the scalability of this approach is explored and the formation of a homogeneous polycrystalline DNA origami lattice at the mica-electrolyte interface over a total surface area of 18.75 cm2 is demonstrated. The topological analysis of more than 50 individual AFM images recorded at random locations over the sample surface showed only minuscule and random variations in the quality and order of the assembled lattice. The analysis of more than 450 fluorescence microscopy images of a quantum dot-decorated DNA origami lattice further revealed a very homogeneous surface coverage over cm2 areas with only minor boundary effects at the substrate edges. At total DNA costs of € 0.12 per cm2 , this large-scale nanopatterning technique holds great promise for the fabrication of functional surfaces.

Abstract
DNA nanostructures provide a powerful platform for the programmable assembly of nanomaterials. Here this approach is extended to synthesize rod-like gold nanoparticles in a full DNA controlled manner. The approach is based on DNA molds containing elongated cavities. Gold is deposited inside the molds using a seeded-growth procedure. By carefully exploring the growth parameters it is shown that gold nanostructures with aspect ratios of up to 7 can be grown from single seeds. The highly anisotropic growth is in this case controlled only by the rather soft and porous DNA walls. The optimized seeded growth procedure provides a robust and simple routine to achieve continuous gold nanostructures using DNA templating.

Abstract
DNA origami-templated fabrication enables bottom-up fabrication of nanoscale structures from a variety of functional materials, including metal nanowires. We studied the impact of low-temperature annealing on the morphology and conductance of DNA-templated nanowires. Nanowires were formed by selective seeding of gold nanorods on DNA origami and gold electroless plating of the seeded structures. At low annealing temperatures (160 °C for seeded-only and 180 °C for plated), the wires broke up and separated into multiple, isolated islands. Through the use of polymer-constrained annealing, the island formation in plated wires was suppressed up to annealing temperatures of 210 °C. Four-point electrical measurements showed that the wires remained conductive after a polymer-constrained annealing at 200 °C.

Abstract
The construction of metallic nanostructures with customizable morphologies and complex shapes has been an essential pursuit in nanoscience. DNA nanotechnology has enabled the fabrication of increasingly complex DNA nanostructures with unprecedented specificity, programmability and sub-nanometer precision, which makes it an ideal approach to rationally organize metallic nanostructures. Here we report an Assemble, Grow and Lift-Off (AGLO) strategy to construct robust standalone gold nanostructures with pre-designed customizable shapes in solution, using only a simple 2D DNA origami sheet as a versatile transient template. Gold nanoparticle (AuNP) seeds were firstly assembled onto the pre-designed binding sites of the DNA origami template and then additional gold was slowly deposited onto the AuNP seeds. The growing seed surfaces eventually merge with adjacent seeds to generate one continuous gold nanostructure in a pre-designed shape, which can then be lifted off the origami template. Diverse customized patterns of templated AuNP seeds were successfully transformed into corresponding gold nanostructures with the target structure transformation percentage over 80%. Moreover, the AGLO strategy can be incorporated with a magnetic bead separation platform to enable the easy recycling of the excess AuNP seeds and DNA components.

Abstract
The near-field effects in the vicinity of metallic nanoparticle surfaces, as induced by electromagnetic radiation with specific wavelength, give rise to a variety of novel optical properties and attractive applications because of surface plasmons, which are the coherent oscillations of conduction electrons on a metal surface. The interdisciplinary field of plasmonics has witnessed vigorous growth, promoting research on the modulation of plasmon resonance by constructing advanced plasmonic nanoarchitectures with controllable size, morphology, or interparticle coupling. Among diversified tools, deoxyribonucleic nucleic acid (DNA) possesses prominent superiority as a result of its designability, programmability, addressability, and ease of nanomaterial modification. In this review, we focus on the methods and optical applications of plasmon resonance modulation accomplished by DNA nanotechnology. Recent developments in the construction of DNA-mediated plasmonic nanoarchitecture and key ongoing research directions utilizing unique optical features are highlighted. Obstacles and challenges in this field are pointed out, followed by preliminary suggestions on some areas of opportunity that deserve attention.

Abstract
The inherent specificity of DNA sequence hybridization has been extensively exploited to develop bioengineering applications. Nevertheless, the structural potential of DNA has been far less explored for creating non-canonical DNA-based reactions. Here we develop a DNA origami-enabled highly localized metallization reaction for intrinsic metallization patterning with 10-nm resolution. Both theoretical and experimental studies reveal that low-valence metal ions (Cu2+ and Ag+) strongly coordinate with DNA bases in protruding clustered DNA (pcDNA) prescribed on two-dimensional DNA origami, which results in effective attraction within flexible pcDNA strands for site-specific pcDNA condensation. We find that the metallization reactions occur selectively on prescribed sites while not on origami substrates. This strategy is generically applicable for free-style metal painting of alphabet letters, digits and geometric shapes on all−DNA substrates with near-unity efficiency. We have further fabricated single- and double-layer nanoscale printed circuit board (nano-PCB) mimics, shedding light on bio-inspired fabrication for nanoelectronic and nanophotonic applications. DNA origami has gained great interest for the creation of precise nanostructures. Here, the authors report on the creation of metalized DNA origami structured formed by metal condensation of DNA and nucleated metal growth on the formed DNA nanostructures.

Abstract
DNA is an attractive candidate for integration into nanoelectronics as a biological nanowire due to its linear geometry, definable base sequence, easy, inexpensive and non-toxic replication and self-assembling properties. Recently we discovered that by intercalating Ag+ in polycytosine-mismatch oligonucleotides, the resulting C-Ag+-C duplexes are able to conduct charge efficiently. To map the functionality and biostability of this system, we built and characterized internally-functionalized DNA nanowires through non-canonical, Ag+-mediated base pairing in duplexes containing cytosine-cytosine mismatches. We assessed the thermal and chemical stability of ion-coordinated duplexes in aqueous solutions and conclude that the C-Ag+-C bond forms DNA duplexes with replicable geometry, predictable thermodynamics, and tunable length. We demonstrated continuous ion chain formation in oligonucleotides of 11-50 nucleotides (nt), and enzyme ligation of mixed strands up to six times that length. This construction is feasible without detectable silver nanocluster contaminants. Functional gene parts for the synthesis of DNA- and RNA-based, C-Ag+-C duplexes in a cell-free system have been constructed in an Escherichia coli expression plasmid and added to the open-source BioBrick Registry, paving the way to realizing the promise of inexpensive industrial production. With appropriate design constraints, this conductive variant of DNA demonstrates promise for use in synthetic biological constructs as a dynamic nucleic acid component and contributes molecular electronic functionality to DNA that is not already found in nature. We propose a viable route to fabricating stable DNA nanowires in cell-free and synthetic biological systems for the production of self-assembling nanoelectronic architectures.

Abstract
Metal nanoarchitectures fabrication based on DNA assembly has attracted a good deal of attention. DNA nanotechnology enables precise organization of nanoscale objects with extraordinary structural programmability. The spatial addressability of DNA nanostructures and sequence-dependent recognition allow functional elements to be precisely positioned; thus, novel functional materials that are difficult to produce using conventional methods could be fabricated. This review focuses on the recent development of the fabrication strategies toward manipulating the shape and morphology of metal nanoparticles and nanoassemblies based on the rational design of DNA structures. DNA-mediated metallization, including DNA-templated conductive nanowire fabrication and sequence-selective metal deposition, etc., is briefly introduced. The modifications of metal nanoparticles (NPs) with DNA and subsequent construction of heterogeneous metal nanoarchitectures are highlighted. Importantly, DNA-assembled dynamic metal nanostructures that are responsive to different stimuli are also discussed as they allow the design of smart and dynamic materials. Meanwhile, the prospects and challenges of these shape-and morphology-controlled strategies are summarized.

Abstract
Recently introduced DNA nanomolds allow the shape-controlled growth of metallic nanoparticles. Here we demonstrate that this approach can be used to fabricate longer linear metal nanostructures of controlled lengths and patterns. To this end, we establish a set of different interfaces that enable mold interactions with high affinity and specificity. These interfaces enable and control the modular assembly of mold monomers into larger mold superstructure with programmable dimension in which each mold monomer remains uniquely addressable. Preloading the molds with nanoparticle seeds subsequently allows the growth of linear gold nanostructures whose lengths are controlled by the DNA structure. Exploiting the addressability of individual mold monomers furthermore allows achievement of site-specific metallization, that is, to create defined metal patterns. We think that the introduced approach provides a useful basis to fabricate nanomaterials with complex shapes and material composition in a fully programmable and modular fashion.

Abstract
Bottom-up nanofabrication is increasingly making use of self-assembled DNA to fabricate nanowires and potential integrated circuits, although yields of such electronic nanostructures are inadequate, as is the ability to reliably make electrical measurements on them. In this paper, we report improved yields and unprecedented conductivity measurements for Au nanowires created on DNA origami tile substrates. We created several different self-assembled Au nanowire arrangements on DNA origami tiles that are approximately 70 nm × 90 nm, through anisotropic growth of Au nanorods attached to specific sites. Modifications to the tile design increased yields of the final desired nanostructures as much as 6-fold. In addition, we measured the conductivity of Au nanowires created on these DNA tiles (∼130 nm long, 10 nm diameter, and 40 nm spacing between measurement points) with a four-point measurement technique that utilized electron beam induced metal deposition to form probe electrodes. These nanowires formed on single DNA origami tiles were electrically conductive, having resistivities as low as 4.24 × 10-5 Ω m. This work demonstrates the creation and measurement of inorganic nanowires on single DNA origami tiles as a promising path toward future bottom-up fabrication of nanoelectronics.

Abstract
The use of self-assembly techniques may open new possibilities in scaling down electronic circuits to their ultimate limits. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) nanotechnology has already demonstrated that it can provide valuable tools for the creation of nanostructures of arbitrary shape, therefore presenting an ideal platform for the development of nanoelectronic circuits. So far, however, the electronic properties of DNA nanostructures are mostly insulating, thus limiting the use of the nanostructures in electronic circuits. Therefore, methods have been investigated that use the DNA nanostructures as templates for the deposition of electrically conducting materials along the DNA strands. The most simple such structure is given by metallic nanowires formed by deposition of metals along the DNA nanostructures. Here, we review the fabrication and the characterization of the electronic properties of nanowires, which were created using these methods.

Abstract
We introduce a new concept for the solution-based fabrication of conductive gold nanowires using DNA templates. To this end, we employ DNA nanomolds, inside which electroless gold deposition is initiated by site-specific attached seeds. Using programmable interfaces, individual molds self-assemble into micrometer-long mold superstructures. During subsequent internal gold deposition, the mold walls constrain the metal growth, such that highly homogeneous nanowires with 20-30 nm diameters are obtained. Wire contacting using electron-beam lithography and electrical conductance characterization at temperatures between 4.2 K and room temperature demonstrate that metallic conducting wires were produced, although for part of the wires, the conductance is limited by boundaries between gold grains. Using different mold designs, our synthesis scheme will, in the future, allow the fabrication of complex metal structures with programmable shapes.

Abstract
We present a method to increase the stability of DNA nanostructure templates through conformal coating with a nanometer-thin protective inorganic oxide layer created using atomic layer deposition (ALD). DNA nanotubes and origami triangles were coated with ca. 2 nm to ca. 20 nm of Al2O3. Nanoscale features of the DNA nanostructures were preserved after the ALD coating and the patterns are resistive to UV/O3 oxidation. The ALD-coated DNA templates were used for a direct pattern transfer to poly(L-lactic acid) films.

Abstract
This work examines the anisotropic electroless plating of DNA-functionalized gold nanorods attached to a DNA origami template to fabricate continuous metal structures of rectanglar, square, and T shapes. DNA origami, a versatile method for assembling a variety of 2- and 3-D nanostructures, is utilized to construct the DNA breadboard template used for this study. Staple strands on selective sites of the breadboard template are extended with an additional nucleotide sequence for the attachment of DNA-functionalized gold nanorods to the template via base pairing. The nanorod-seeded DNA templates are then introduced into an electroless gold plating solution to determine the extent to which the anisotropic growth of the nanorods is able to fill the gaps between seeds to create continuous structures. Our results show that the DNA-functionalized nanorods grow anisotropically during plating at a rate that is approximately 4 times faster in the length direction than in the width direction to effectively fill gaps of up to 11-13 nm in length. The feasibility of using this directional growth at specific sites to enable the fabrication of continuous metal nanostructures with diameters as thin as 10 nm is demonstrated and represents important progress toward the creation of devices and systems based on self-assembled biological templates.

Abstract
The study of DNA interaction with the acetate bis(1,10-phenanthroline)silver(I) monohydrate in a solution is of interest both for understanding the mechanism of biological activity of silver compound and for forming ordered structures (DNA fibrils) that can be used to solve various problems in the field of nanotechnology. The analysis of changing the DNA conformation (secondary structure, persistent length and volume effects) during the interaction by the methods of UV spectroscopy with the analysis of DNA melting, circular dichroism, viscosity, flow birefringence, AFM (atomic force microscopy) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy) was performed. The formation of two types of complexes was observed. At lower concentration of compound in DNA solution, silver atoms form the coordination bonds with a macromolecule, while the released phenanthroline ligands intercalate between DNA bases. When the concentration of the compound increases, the phenanthroline ligands form an ordered "layer" around the helix. The excess of silver compounds in the DNA solution (with more than five silver atoms per base pair), DNA precipitation is observed with the formation of long fibrils. It was shown that the binding of silver to DNA during the formation of complexes provides further metallization of the resulting structures with the aid of reducing agents; phenanthroline ligands influence the result of such metallization.

Abstract
An improved method for the metallization of DNA origami is examined in this work. DNA origami, a simple and robust method for creating a wide variety of nanostructured shapes and patterns, provides an enabling template for bottom-up fabrication of next-generation nanodevices. Selective metallization of these DNA templates is needed to make nanoelectronic devices. Here, we demonstrate a metallization process that uses gold nanorod seeds followed by anisotropic plating to provide improved morphology and greater control of the final metallized width of the structure. In our approach, gold nanorods are attached to an origami template to create a seed layer. Electroless gold deposition is then used to fill the gaps between seeds in order to create continuous, conductive nanowires. Importantly, growth during electroless deposition occurs preferentially in the length direction at a rate that is approximately 4 times the growth rate in the width direction, which enables fabrication of narrow, continuous wires. The electrical properties of 49 nanowires with widths ranging from 13 to 29 nm were characterized, and resistivity values as low as 8.9 × 10-7 Ω·m were measured. The anisotropic metallization process presented here represents important progress toward the creation of nanoelectronic devices by molecularly directed placement of functional components onto self-assembled biological templates.

Abstract
Metallic nanostructures have inspired extensive research over several decades, particularly within the field of nanoelectronics and increasingly in plasmonics. Due to the limitations of conventional lithography methods, the development of bottom-up fabricated metallic nanostructures has become more and more in demand. The remarkable development of DNA-based nanostructures has provided many successful methods and realizations for these needs, such as chemical DNA metallization via seeding or ionization, as well as DNA-guided lithography and casting of metallic nanoparticles by DNA molds. These methods offer high resolution, versatility and throughput and could enable the fabrication of arbitrarily-shaped structures with a 10-nm feature size, thus bringing novel applications into view. In this review, we cover the evolution of DNA-based metallic nanostructures, starting from the metallized double-stranded DNA for electronics and progress to sophisticated plasmonic structures based on DNA origami objects.
