Nano-patterning of solid substrates by adsorbed dendrimers.
Weakly charged solid substrates can be nano-patterned in liquid-like order with large and well-defined spacing by adsorbing poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimers; highly charged substrates lead to lower spacing due to electrostatic three-body attractions between the dendrimers and the substrate.
