DNA纳米技术是一种材料设计范例，其中合成核酸用于对纳米尺度器件和材料的结构和动力学进行编程。随着DNA合成成本的降低，先进但易于使用的计算设计和分析工具，以及最重要的是，无数的创新研究证明了DNA组织功能材料的非凡能力，DNA纳米技术正在扩展到传统材料科学的各个领域。为了进一步促进DNA纳米技术与材料科学的整合，这期MRS Bulletin概述了DNA纳米技术提供的独特功能，一套实用技术，使其能够为广大受众所用，以及该领域国际领导人对其未来应用的展望。
DNA nanotechnology is a materials design paradigm in which synthetic nucleic acids are used to program the structure and dynamics of nanometer-scale devices and materials. Driven by the convergence of decreasing DNA synthesis costs, advanced yet easy-to-use computational design and analysis tools, and, most importantly, a myriad of innovative studies demonstrating DNA's extraordinary power to organize functional materials, DNA nanotechnology is spreading into diverse areas of traditional materials science. To further promote the integration of DNA nanotechnology into materials science, this issue of MRS Bulletin provides an overview of the unique capabilities offered by DNA nanotechnology, a set of practical techniques that make it accessible to a broad audience, and a vision for its future applications, described by international leaders in the field.
