Over the two last decades, DNA technologies have intensively been studied for the organization of matter at the nanoscale. Thanks to the bio recognition of two complementary DNA single-strands and their hybridization into the famous helicoidally structure, self-assembling of gold nanoparticles into highly ordered micrometer scale crystals has...

The association of a metallic fuel (usually aluminum) with an oxidizer (metal oxide or organic compound) creates an exothermic material that can be ignited with an external stimulus such as local heating or spark discharge. These materials with high energetic performances, called nanothermites, have been used to release temperature or pressure...

DNA-directed assembly of nano-objects as a means to manufacture advanced nanomaterial architectures has been the subject of many studies. However, most applications have dealt with noble metals as there are fundamental difficulties to work with other materials. In this work, we propose a generic and systematic approach for functionalizing and...

The DNA-directed assembly of nano-objects has been the subject of many recent studies as a means to construct advanced nanomaterial architectures. Although much experimental in silico work has been presented and discussed, there has been no in-depth consideration of the proper design of single-strand sticky termination of DNA sequences, noted...

DNA immobilization on surfaces is crucial to a number of applications. However, detailed understanding of DNA/surface chemistry remains poorly documented, especially on oxide surfaces, due to the complexity of such large molecules. This work focuses on a simpler molecule, 2-deoxythymidine-5-monophosphate (dTMP), which contains all the chemical...
