Building Life A Molecule At A Time August 19, 2005 / 10:13 AM EDT / AP They're called "synthetic biologists" and they boldly claim the ability to make never-before-seen living things, one genetic ...

Another molecule would travel along the ribbon, read (and one day write) the code, and output some specified action, like catalyzing a chemical reaction. Now, Leigh's team says they've built the first ...

Chemists at the University of Basel in Switzerland have succeeded in twisting a molecule by combining molecular strands of differing lengths. The longer strand winds around a central axis like a ...

Researchers of the University of Barcelona have led a project to create a diode out of a 1 nm-sized single molecule with high rectification ratios. Diodes, commonly used in in everyday electronic ...

The team used a highly stable scanning tunneling microscope (STM) to create a transistor consisting of a single organic molecule and positively charged metal atoms, positioning them with the STM ...

Researchers have found a new way to optimise the design molecular motors, bringing us one step closer to making synthetic molecular machines a reality ...

Researchers discovered that a heart-shaped molecule will jump in straight lines when given an electric jolt. Skip to main content. Scientific American. December 1, 2023. 4 min read.
