Nanoscale hybrid structure

Nucleic acids can be conjugated to nano-objects, such as nanoparticles, nanowires, or nanotubes. The resulting nucleic acids-nano-objects hybrids combine the tailored recognition and catalytic properties of the nucleic acids with the electronic, optical, and catalytic features of the nano-objects. The forthcoming chapter will address the organization of nanoscale supramolecular structures of nucleic acids on... 

The aforementioned processes lead to organic-inorganic hybrid materials with ordered structures at the nanoscale. Controlled structural characteristics have been achieved by seeking an equilibrium state of BCP-directed self-assembled nanostructures. The achievable structural diversity can be expanded by kinetic...

We are nowhere close to knowing the potential benefits that nanoscale silicone resin networks, with their special structure-effect relationship, will be able to offer irmovative technologies of the future (nanotechnology). By virtue of their organic-inorganic hybrid nature, silicones open up new paths to special functionalities and enhanced properties of materials.
