Self-assembly of 3D prestressed tensegrity structures from DNA
Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, is a property of a structure indicating a reliance on a balance between components that are either in pure compression or pure tension for stability. Tensegrity structures exhibit extremely high strength-to-weight ratios and great resilience, and are therefore widely used in engineering, robotics and architecture. Here, we report nanoscale, prestressed, three...

متن کاملLearning from the unexpected in life and DNA self-assembly
The greatest lessons in life and science often arise from the unexpected. Thus, rather than viewing these experiences as hindering our progress, they should be embraced and appreciated for their ability to lead to new discoveries. In this perspective, I will discuss the unexpected events that have shaped my career path and the early stages of my independent research program.

متن کاملNanotechnology and Quasicrystals: from Self- Assembly to Photonic Applications
After providing a concise overview on quasicrystals and their discovery more than a quarter of a century ago, I consider the unexpected interplay between nanotechnology and quasiperiodic crystals. Of particular relevance are efforts to fabricate artificial functional microor nanostructures, as well as efforts to control the selfassembly of nanostructures, where current knowledge about the possi...
