Description
Summary:We fabricated zigzag and folded DNA nanostructures by an angle control scheme. In order to give a solid verification of its operation, an open tube structure was also designed and it shows drastic dimensional changes compared with 2 dimensional zigzag and folded structures. These self-assembled artificial DNA structures would provide nanoscale-resolution templates for the alignment of various functional materials.
