Establishing the Design Rules for DNA‐Mediated Programmable Colloidal Crystallization
Year: 2010
Type: article
Abstract: DNA-programmable colloidal crystals are assembled with 5–80 nm nanoparticles, and the lattice parameters of the resulting crystals vary from 25 to 225 nm. A predictable and mathematically definable relationship between particle size and DNA length dictates the assembly and crystallization processes, creating a set of design rules for DNA-based nanoscale assembly.
