Buckyballs on DNA for harvesting light

Organic molecules that capture photons and convert these into electricity have important applications for producing green energy. Light-harvesting complexes need two semiconductors, an electron donor and an acceptor. How ...

Origami with DNA

T-cells are an important component of our immune system: with the receptors they carry on their surface, they can recognize highly specific antigens. Upon detection of an intruder, an immune response is triggered. It is still ...

DNA origami enables fabricating superconducting nanowires

The quest for ever-smaller electronic components led an international group of researchers to explore using molecular building blocks to create them. DNA is able to self-assemble into arbitrary structures, but the challenge ...
