Nanotechnology devices

Supramolecular systems have a wide variety of uses, such as trapping molecules within solid state lattices (Chapter 4), sensing and remediation of species from solution (Chapter 2), understanding biological self-assembly (Chapter 3) and nanotechnological devices (Chapter 5). Together, these topics form the core concepts upon which supramolecular chemistry is based. 

Biomolecular electronics (BMEs) uses actual biological molecules in the design of nanotechnological devices. The natural self-recognition and self-assembly... 

The identification of the elementary steps of these molecular events may be generalized and might help elucidate the basis for correlated internal rotations in other molecules of stereochemical interest, particularly in intermediates and transition states of enantioselective catalysis. In addition, the phenomenon discussed here could provide new ideas for the design of sophisticated nanotechnological devices.

To facilitate the applications of MOFs in nanotechnological devices, such as sensors, catalysts, and electrodes, the highly ordered microporous MOFs were rationally fabricated as ultrathin films with well-ordered growth direction and film thickness, which opens an important way for their practical applications. As porphyrinic materials have the functions in various aspects.
