We have applied soft lithography for the indirect patterning of micellar poly(styrene-b-2-vinyl pyridine) diblock copolymers loaded with gold chloric acid with a pattern width below a micrometer. A combination of physical and chemical heterogeneities on the substrate induced a selective deposition of the micelles in between the relief structures without the need for additional liftoff or annealing steps. Micelle size, dip coating speed, and height of the relief pattern were identified as important parameters to achieve a successful selective deposition. Finally, a single layer of patterned gold nanoparticles was formed inside the micropattern using an oxygen plasma treatment.
