Colloidal Joints with Designed Motion Range and Tunable Joint Flexibility
Nanoscale, 2016 The miniaturization of machines towards the micron and nanoscales requires the development of joint-like elements that enable and constrain motion. We present a facile method to create colloidal joints, that is, anisotropic colloidal particles containing surface mobile DNA linkers that control the motion range of bonded particles.
