Material Voxels Assembly Schematic

Caption

A schematic of the programmable assembly of 3-D ordered nanostructures from material voxels that can carry inorganic or organic nanoparticles with different functions, such as light emitters and absorbers, proteins, and enzymes with chemical activity. Material voxels are fabricated from DNA and nano-objects of different kinds, and their assembly is guided by the voxel design and DNA-programmable interactions.
