ANISOTROPIC MAGNETS. "Lithographed magnetic nanostructures offer an abundant possibility for tailoring their properties through the suitable choice of their geometry that determines the strength of shape anisotropies with magnetostatic origin. The nanostructuring techniques have opened a road for the discovery of new physical phenomena at the nanoscale with important consequences for nanotechnological applications." http://arxiv.org/pdf/1001.2682 View in LinkedIn

MAGNETIC NANOSTRUCTURES. "Magnetic materials are one of the most vital and fastest growing areas of research in the field of nanotechnology" primarily for large increases in information storage for future multimillion dollar markets.” https://lnkd.in/g4imEuK View in LinkedIn

NEARLY INFINITE. "When twenty different amino acids make a sequence chain having ten amino acids, the chain has over a trillion isomers." https://lnkd.in/dR7Kdj8 View in LinkedIn

SUPRAMOLECULAR CHIRALITY. "Since the steroidal molecules are highly asymmetric, the resulting hierarchical assembles may have the corresponding three-dimensional structure with supramolecular chirality. Starting from molecular chirality, each assembly must be chiral." https://lnkd.in/dR7Kdj8 View in LinkedIn

SYNTHETIC CHALLENGES. "In inorganic compounds, it is still a big challenge to control the crystallographic chirality." https://lnkd.in/gcSAHjy View in LinkedIn

PIEZO-AMINO ACIDS. "Piezoelectricity is a phenomenon which can exist only in noncentrosymmetric materials. The main building blocks of life are proteins, and the majority of protein crystals and noncentrosymmetric. Proteins are made of combinations of the 20 known amino acids, the majority of which also have noncentrosymmetric crystal structures...as a consequence, these amino acids poses piezoelectric properties." https://lnkd.in/eBe5QYb View in LinkedIn

NATURE IS SMARTER. "A large number of scientific and industrial crystallization processes are controlled by additives but often in an empirical manner. Biominerals on the other hand demonstrate that nature is a real master of the additive-controlled crystallization." https://lnkd.in/gT7C6yF View in LinkedIn

PROCESS RATHER THAN FORM. "Unlike those of the metazoans, the body plans of plants are difficult to categorize or define. The perspective taken here is that plant Baupläne are far more profitably discussed in terms of how organized growth is achieved and how different tissue fabrics are used to construct the plant body." http://aob.oxfordjournals.org/content/85/4/411.full.pdf View in LinkedIn
