Investigations on self-assembling/induced-disassembling systems have led to the design of molecular-level devices capable of performing a variety of functions. Some ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tohoku University and Kyoto University have successfully developed a DNA-based molecular controller that autonomously directs the assembly and disassembly of molecular ...

A series of eight tetradentate, ditopic, bisimino bisheterocyclic ligands (1-8), and their complexes with Cu(I) and Cu(II), have been studied in CH(3)CN solution, by means of (1)H NMR, mass, and ...

Researchers have succeeded in developing a DNA-based molecular controller. Crucially, this controller enables the autonomous assembly and disassembly of molecular robots, as opposed to manually ...
