The DNA origami building blocks form crystals of approximately ten micrometers in size, which are deposited on a substrate and then passed on to a cooperating research group from the Walter ...

Here, we demonstrate robust assembly of DNA origami filaments into cholesteric liquid crystals, one-dimensional supramolecular twisted ribbons and two-dimensional colloidal membranes. The ...

The DNA origami building blocks form crystals of approximately ten micrometers in size, which are deposited on a substrate and then passed on to a cooperating research group from the Walter Schottky ...

Programmable DNA origami seeds were developed that can display up to 32 distinct binding sites and researchers demonstrated the use of seeds to nucleate three types of algorithmic crystals. In the ...

The process, which they are calling ‘crystal capillary origami,’ could be used in a range of fields from more precise drug delivery to nanoscale medical devices.The technique is described in a ...

AZoNano speaks with Professor Hyoungsoo Kim from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology about his efforts to create a novel nanoscale self-assembling salt-crystal origami method called ...

As the researchers report in the journal Angewandte Chemie ("Crystalline Two-Dimensional DNA-Origami Arrays"), these two-dimensional crystals attain dimensions of about 2×3 micrometers. DNA origami ...

In a crystal, atoms are linked by chemical bonds. In origami, vertices are linked by creases. Even with a lattice as small as 10 units wide, Assis said, such a statistical approach can still ...

Light Origami was part of this year’s bustling Vivid Sydney, an 18-day light and music festival within the beautiful Australian city. Masakazu Shirane’s aim was to create an interactive space ...

Using DNA nanotechnology, the team has developed a new approach for the manufacture of photonic crystals. In contrast to lithographic techniques, the LMU team uses a method called DNA origami to ...
