Fluorescence in Bio-inspired Nanotechnology [electronic resource] : First as Probe, Then as Function / by Jonas Hannestad.

By: Hannestad, Jonas [author.]Contributor(s): SpringerLink (Online service)Material type: TextTextSeries: Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. ResearchPublication details: Heidelberg : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2013Description: XII, 119 p. 53 illus., 37 illus. in color. online resourceContent type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9783319010687Subject(s): chemistry | Chemistry, Physical organic | Nanochemistry | Nanotechnology | Chemistry | Nanochemistry | Physical Chemistry | NanotechnologyDDC classification: 541.2 LOC classification: QD478Online resources: Click here to access online
Contents:
Introduction -- Being Bioinspired -- DNA: molecular recognition and information storage -- Photophysics -- Nanoscale photonic devices -- Lipids: soft, dynamic containers -- Methodology -- Summary of five papers -- Concluding remarks.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: In his thesis Fluorescence in Bio-inspired Nanotechnology, Jonas Hannestad describes the evolving field of DNA nanotechnology in a lucid and easily accessible way. A central theme in the thesis is how biological structures and mechanisms constitute a basis for the design of novel technologies. Hannestad discusses how self-assembled, nanometer-scale DNA constructs can be functionalized using fluorescent labeling. In particular, he highlights how applications are based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Another important contribution is the development of a lipid monolayer platform for the step-by-step assembly of DNA nanoconstructs. The work in the thesis is based on five peer-reviewed papers published in high-profile journals, all of which involve major contributions from the author.
