DNA directed self-assembly of shape-controlled hydrogels
Using DNA as programmable, sequence-specific 'glues', shape-controlled hydrogel units are self-assembled into prescribed structures. Here we report that aggregates are produced using hydrogel cubes with edge lengths ranging from 30 μm to 1 mm, demonstrating assembly across scales. In a simple one-pot agitation reaction, 25 dimers are constructed in parallel from 50 distinct hydrogel cube specie...
متن کاملControlled growth and shape-directed self-assembly of gold nanoarrows
Self-assembly of colloidal nanocrystals into complex superstructures offers notable opportunities to create functional devices and artificial materials with unusual properties. Anisotropic nanoparticles with nonspherical shapes, such as rods, plates, polyhedra, and multipods, enable the formation of a diverse range of ordered superlattices. However, the structural complexity and tunability of n...
متن کاملMorphologically controlled synthesis of colloidal upconversion nanophosphors and their shape-directed self-assembly.
We report a one-pot chemical approach for the synthesis of highly monodisperse colloidal nanophosphors displaying bright upconversion luminescence under 980 nm excitation. This general method optimizes the synthesis with initial heating rates up to 100 °C/minute generating a rich family of nanoscale building blocks with distinct morphologies (spheres, rods, hexagonal prisms, and plates) and upc...
متن کاملSequential shape-and-solder-directed self-assembly of functional microsystems.
We demonstrate the fabrication of packaged microsystems that contain active semiconductor devices and passive components by using a directed self-assembly technique. The directed self-assembly is accomplished by combining geometrical shape recognition with site-specific binding involving liquid solder. Microfabricated components with matching complementary shapes, circuits, and liquid solder-co...
