A device is provided which is suitable for delivering at least one nanoparticle(s) to a subject. The device can be used to deliver a variety of nanoparticles, for example, therapeutic agents, directly through the outer layers of the skin without passing completely through the epidermis of the subject. Thus the device can be used to deliver therapeutic agents to a predetermined depth and avoid disturbing the pain receptors in the skin. Thus the device can be used to deliver agents, including therapeutic agents, in a non-invasive manner. A method of fabricating devices with associated nanoparticles is also provided.
