Aug 27, 2022 (Nanowerk News) Using x-ray crystallography, researchers studied 36 DNA-based molecular junctions and discovered factors that yield superior 3D self-assembled lattice structures (Nature Communications, "The influence of Holliday junction sequence and dynamics on DNA crystal self-assembly"). The work expands the set of building blocks for lattices that can...

Nanotechnology Now – Press Release: Understanding outsize role of nanopores: New research reveals differences in pH, and more, about these previously mysterious environments
Home > Press > Understanding outsize role of nanopores: New research reveals differences in pH, and more, about these previously mysterious environments In the lab, the research teams found that anions were preferred to transport in nanopores, inducing lower pH inside the nanopores than in the bulk solution. The higher...
Metasurfaces offer new possibilities for quantum research
Aug 26, 2022 (Nanowerk News) A photon is the quantum (the minimum amount involved in an interaction) of any form of electromagnetic radiation, such as light. Photons are essential to a number of current research fields and technologies, like quantum state engineering, which in turn represents the cornerstone of all...
