Structural DNA begins by highlighting the four stages of nanotechnology: static nanostructures, active nanodevices, nanomachines and simple nanosystems, and productive nanosystems.
This foundation provides the context to explore the four primary approaches to building productive nanosystems. Two are top-down approaches: Diamondoid Mechanosynthesis, and Patterned Atomic Layer Epitaxy, and two are bottom-up approaches: Bis-peptide Synthesis, and Structural DNA.
Part of the award-winning Manufacturing Insights Video Series, in this video viewers will then be introduced to researchers at Nanorex, Inc., Bloomfield Hills, MI, and Duke University, Durham, NC. They'll discover how these researchers are harnessing the structural and informational components of DNA to develop methods of altering molecules under programmable control to generate self-replicating productive nanosystems.
