Bio-Inspired Assembly of Nanomaterials for Applications on Nanoelectronics and Biosensors
type: CreativeWork
description: Recent development in nanostructured material synthesis and engineering has made huge impact on a number of fields including nanoelectronics, photonics, biology, and medicine. A main reason for such an impact is that every nanomaterial, such as metallic nanoparticles (NPs), quantum dots (QDs), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and magnetic nanoparticles has unique physical and chemical properties that can be used for various applications. For practical use of nanomaterials in various applications, however, it is necessary to assemble nanomaterials in controlled manner and manipulate their behaviors. This control of nanomaterials can be accomplished by functionalizing the nanomaterials with biopolymers, such as DNA. In this work, DNA has been used along with nanomaterials to demonstrate their usage in diverse applications.
