Self-assembly, Self-organization: a Philosophical Perspective on a Major Challenge of Nanotechnology Self-assembly, Self-organization: a Philosophical Perspective on a Major Challenge of Nanotechnology
Put the different parts of a car in a big box, and shake the whole, will you get a car? This image is often used to express what self-assembly can achieve. 1 Spontaneous arrangements of small building blocks in ordered patterns or structures are ubiquitous in living systems, and they are crucial for designing at the nanoscale, where human hands and tools are helpless. Self-assembly is extremely...
متن کاملMacromolecular self-assembly and nanotechnology in China.
Macromolecular self-assembly refers to the assembly of synthetic polymers, biomacromolecules and supra-molecular polymers. Through macromolecular self-assembly, the fabrication of ordered structures at different scales, the control of the dynamic assembly process and the integrations of advanced functions can be realized. Macromolecular self-assembly and nanotechnology research in China has dev...

متن کاملTrends in Nanotechnology: Self-Assembly and Defect Tolerance
In this paper we discuss the concept of using self-assembly coupled with novel switching elements and a defect-tolerant architecture to fabricate advanced nanoelectronics. Self-assembly should allow small features to be fabricated at a markedly lower cost than that projected by extrapolating current trends because of the defect tolerance and the use of coarser lithography to position device fea...
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...
