Funded Activity Summary

DNA origami functionalised nanoscale surfaces. This project aims to combine the strengths of top-down and bottom-up nanofabrication to build hybrid structures. In traditional top-down nanofabrication, large systems pattern a semiconductor substrate to build up sophisticated devices. In contrast, in the emerging field of bottom-up nanotechnology, clever design of molecular interactions drives the self-assembly of smaller building blocks into more complex structures, with smaller features. This project aims to bridge the gap between these two technologies to build functional devices. These devices will be applied, for example, to understand biological problems such as why blood clots form on implanted medical devices - their main cause of failure.
