206. Here, we are interested in relative placement of building blocks with respect to the template. The placement precision is defined as the average deviation of positions of building blocks from the target position. For example, if a 100 nm width trench is used as a guiding structure and nanoparticles are randomly distributed within the trench, the placement precision would be comparable to 50/2 nm. On the other hand, if nanoparticles are located along the center line of the trench with average deviation from the center line being 5 nm, the placement precision is defined as 5 nm
