ENGINEERING 3D NANOELECTRONICS THROUGH DNA TEMPLATED SELF-ASSEMBLY

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 该项目旨在解决纳米技术中的一个重大挑战，即设计三维(3D)纳米结构。我们计划开发自组装3D DNA纳米支架，将纳米颗粒组织成合理设计的、空间可寻址的3D结构，在纳米光子学、纳米电子学和生物/化学传感方面具有长期的前景。 本项目的一个主要方面是探索纳米粒子作为一种活性元素来诱导形成手性DNA-NP纳米管作为纳米生物技术的新架构。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. This project aims to tackle a grand challenge in nanotechnology, which is to engineer three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures. We plan to develop self-assembling 3D DNA nanoscaffolds to organize nanoparticles (NPs) into rationally designed, spatially addressable 3D architectures, with long-term prospects in nanophotonics, nanoelectronics and biological/chemical sensing. A major aspect of this project is to explore NPs as an active elements to induce the formation of chiral DNA-NP nanotubes as novel architectures for nanobiotechnology.
