Abstract
We demonstrate directed nucleation of Au and ZnS patterns on templates comprised of functional peptides and an M13 bacteriophage. We discuss the control over nucleation in terms of the interplay between enhanced ion binding and reduced interfacial energy resulting from the presence of the templates.
