A plasmonic nanorod that walks on DNA origami
Chao Zhou, Xiaoyang Duan, Na Liu
In nano-optics, a formidable challenge remains in precise transport of a single optical nano-object along a programmed and routed path toward a predefined destination. Molecular mo…
Gold nanocrystal-mediated sliding of doublet DNA origami filaments
Maximilian J. Urban, Steffen Both, Chao Zhou +4
Sliding is one of the fundamental mechanical movements in machinery. In macroscopic systems, double-rack pinion machines employ gears to slide two linear tracks along opposite dire…
DNA nanotechnology-enabled chiral plasmonics: from static to dynamic
Chao Zhou, Xiaoyang Duan, Na Liu
In this Account, we discuss a variety of static and dynamic chiral plasmonic nanostructures enabled by DNA nanotechnology. In the category of static plasmonic systems, we first sho…
Optically resolving the dynamic walking of a plasmonic walker couple
Maximilian J. Urban, Chao Zhou, Xiaoyang Duan +1
Deterministic placement and dynamic manipulation of individual plasmonic nanoparticles with nanoscale precision feature an important step towards active nanoplasmonic devices with…
