Nanoparticles Assembled by DNA - From Devices to Lattices - Tim Liedl

Explore the fascinating world of nanoparticle assembly through DNA in this 36-minute conference talk by Tim Liedl from LMU Munich. Delve into the hierarchical approach to functional materials operating at the mesoscale, where elementary building blocks retain their atomic nature while allowing for high structural complexity. Discover how this field bridges multiple scientific disciplines, including chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, and physics. Learn about the current state of nanoparticle assemblies, recent developments, and future directions in this rapidly evolving field. Gain insights into the key physics concepts and potential technological advances that may shape the next decade of research. This talk is part of the KITP Conference on Structure Design and Emerging Phenomena in Nanoparticle Assemblies, bringing together experts to catalyze new methods and define the basic science in this interdisciplinary area.
