Programmed materials synthesis with DNA

Article Abstract:

Using DNA in transforming nanostructures into functional structures and materials has been studied. The application of DNA can be divided into three categories: manufacture of meso- and macroscopic organic structures, as a physical template for growing inorganic wires and organizing nonbiological building blocks and as oligonucleotide functionalized nanoparticles. DNA's unique molecular recognition properties and scaffold-like structure offer various opportunities for constructing meso- and macroscopic periodic arrays from both inorganic and organic building blocks.

Simple axial rods

Article Abstract:

Various procedures of synthesizing simple molecular axial rods have been reviewed. Rod structure, terminal functionalization, solubility, vibrational and electronic spectra and the transmission of electronic effects have also been examined. Molecular rods can be classified as conductors or insulators based on their electronic properties. The transmission of electronic effects through a rod occurs exponentially with its length. Molecular rods can be used as substrates for creating molecular networks and scaffolds.
