Making and Operating Molecular Machines: A Multidisciplinary Challenge
Movement is one of the central attributes of life, and a key feature in many technological processes. While artificial motion is typically provided by macroscopic engines powered by internal combustion or electrical energy, movement in living organisms is produced by machines and motors of molecular size that typically exploit the energy of chemical fuels at ambient temperature to generate forc...
متن کاملMaking molecular machines work.
In this review we chart recent advances in what is at once an old and very new field of endeavour--the achievement of control of motion at the molecular level including solid-state and surface-mounted rotors, and its natural progression to the development of synthetic molecular machines. Besides a discussion of design principles used to control linear and rotary motion in such molecular systems...
متن کاملNanoBioInterface: a multidisciplinary challenge.
Nanotechnologies are being applied to many fields of science and engineering and represent a broad spectrum of methods, some of which have been known for a long time. However, the public interest as well as the promotion of this topic by funding agencies has led in some cases to a simple renaming of known fields by attaching the ‘nano-’ prefix, without initiating a true innovation. One field th...
متن کاملToward autonomously operating molecular machines driven by transition-metal catalyst.
A Vaska-type complex carrying a ferrocene-appended diphosphine ligand was developed as a prototype of autonomous molecular machines that is able to undergo continuous scissoring motion in the presence of diphenylphosphoryl azide and aldehyde.
متن کاملMolecular machines operating on the nanoscale: from classical to quantum
The main physical features and operating principles of isothermal nanomachines in the microworld, common to both classical and quantum machines, are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the dual, constructive role of dissipation and thermal fluctuations, the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, heat losses and free energy transduction, thermodynamic efficiency, and thermodynamic efficiency at max...
