Self-assembly of DNA nanotubes with defined diameters and lengths.
Nanotubes with different sizes can be readily assembled from simple DNA nanomotifs, which consist of just a few unique DNA sequences. Such structurally well-defi ned DNA-nanotubes will have great potential in many technological applications ranging from drug delivery, to determination of biomacromolecular 3D structures, to nanoplasmonic devices.
متن کاملDirecting self-assembly of DNA nanotubes using programmable seeds.
Control over when and where nanostructures arise is essential for the self-assembly of dynamic or multicomponent devices. We design and construct a DNA origami seed for the control of DAE-E tile DNA nanotube assembly. Seeds greatly accelerate nanotube nucleation and growth because they serve as nanotube nucleation templates. Seeds also control nanotube circumference. Simulations predict nanotub...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of DNA nanotubes with controllable diameters.
The synthesis of DNA nanotubes is an important area in nanobiotechnology. Different methods to assemble DNA nanotubes have been reported, and control over the width of the nanotubes has been achieved by programmed subunits of DNA tiles. Here we report the self-assembly of DNA nanotubes with controllable diameters. The DNA nanotubes are formed by the self-organization of single-stranded DNAs, ex...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of Silicon Nanotubes
The growth of silicon nanotubes (SiNTs) by a dual-RF-plasma treatment technique is reported here. These SiNTs are vertically aligned and self-assembled from Si substrates at 500 °C by the use of Cu catalysts. Their diameters are ~50 to 80 nm with tubular wall thickness of ~10-15nm. Cu vapors were found partially filled inside the SiNTs. This is a novel technique that can convert bulk materials ...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon nanolUbes. consisting of graphilic cylinders. have been synthesized in bulk quantities. This comributiofl summarizes our presenr knowledge of Ihe microscopic mechanisms leading to the self· assembly of single-wall or multi-wall tubes. Numerical calculations. supponed by expenmental evidence, suggest these close relatives of fullercnes to be extremely stable Wilh reSpeCI to meChanical str...
