Molecular self-assembly

Molecular Robotics advance could enable a new generation of self-assembling programmable devices

Autonomously growing synthetic DNA strands Synthetic biologists and nanobiologists are re-purposing DNA, the hereditary material

Schematics and electron microscopy picture of millimeters aligned self-assembled polymeric nanostructure.
Molecular self-assembly scales up from nanometers to millimeters

This concept opens up new avenues in large area nanoconstruction, for example in templating nanowires,
