Aligning shape‐anisotropic nano‐objects is a heavily studied topic. On page 702, Heiko Wolf and coworkers demonstrate the oriented assembly of gold nanorods with single‐particle resolution. Assembly is achieved from a dense phase of nanorods at the meniscus of an aqueous suspension through capillary forces. The parallel alignment of arrayed gold nanorods becomes evident from their characteristic plasmon...
Non‐spherical colloidal nanoparticles have great potential for applications owing to their enhanced directional properties. However, the lack of methods to precisely assemble them on surfaces has hindered exploitation of their properties for planar devices. Here, the oriented assembly of short gold nanorods with lengths below 100 nm from colloidal suspensions is demonstrated. A locally induced phase...
