“…[4] Although there has been remarkable progress in the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs) with controlled size,shape,and composition, [5] thegoal of precise functionalization of NPs for the creation of molecule-like discrete nanostructures with customized shape and design is yet to be achieved. [6] Fore xample,D NA has been exploited in the functionalization of various types of nanomaterials,i ncluding metals (for example,A u, Ag), [7] semiconductors (such as,q uantum dots and polymer dots), [8] insulators (for example,u pconversion and metal oxides), NPs, [9] and arange of carbon nanomaterials.
