Nucleic Acids & Nanoparticles in the Luo Lab
Points to Cover1.) Patterning by Controlled Evaporation
2.) Free-Standing Nanoparticle Superlattices
3.) Nanocrystal Characterization
DNA-Nanoparticle Structures: Different Crystals
1.) So what’s the big deal with DNA? How does it help us make nanostructures when combined with Goldnanoparticles?
The Bottom Line: Base pair matching allows DNA-NP structures to be highly specific. GNPs allow for the creation of structures with vastly different material properties.
