چکیده
Abstract The unique specificity of DNA interactions and our ability to synthesize artificial functionalized sequences makes it the ideal material for controlling self-assembly chemical reactions components attached sequences. Inspired by field molecular electronics lack methods assemble components, we have explored organization conjugated using DNA-based self-assembly. In this chapter, provide an overview efforts first chemically couple molecules directed DNA, more recently polymers in nanostructures. At end a short work other groups field.

Single-Molecule Spectroscopic Studies of Conjugated Polymers
A semiconductor is a type of material which has electrical properties in between an insulator and a conductor. A conductor can be thought of as a group of atoms surrounded by a sea of free electrons, which are free to move throughout the material; in contrast, the electrons in an insulator are tightly localized on a specific atom or molecule. In a semiconductor, the electrons are localized as i...
متن کاملOptimizing single-molecule conductivity of conjugated organic oligomers with carbodithioate linkers.
In molecular electronics, the linker group, which attaches the functional molecular core to the electrode, plays a crucial role in determining the overall conductivity of the molecular junction. While much focus has been placed on optimizing molecular core conductivity, there have been relatively few attempts at designing optimal linker groups to metallic or semiconducting electrodes. The vast ...
متن کاملDNA hybridization detection with water-soluble conjugated polymers and chromophore-labeled single-stranded DNA.
A sensor is provided that detects single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ssDNA) with a specific base sequence. The ssDNA sequence sensor comprises an aqueous solution containing a cationic water-soluble conjugated polymer [in this case, poly(9,9-bis(6'-N,N,N-trimethylammonium)-hexyl)-fluorene phenylene), 1] with a ssDNA labeled with a dye (in this case, fluorescein). The emission of light from ...
متن کاملQuantitative mass determination of conjugated polymers for single molecule conformation analysis: enhancing rigidity with macrocycles.
A combination of advanced synthetic and single molecule spectroscopic techniques allowed us to demonstrate that macrocycles, covalently bound to a conjugated polymer backbone, raise the effective chain persistence length by at least a factor of 5.
متن کاملStudying confined polymers using single - molecule DNA experiments
The development of fluorescence microscopy of single-molecule DNA in the last decade has fostered a bold jump in the understanding of polymer physics. With the recent advance of nanotechnology, devices with well-defined dimensions that are smaller than typical DNA molecules can be readily manufactured. The combination of these techniques has provided an unprecedented opportunity for researchers...
