The objective of the research is to make use of the self-assembly and metal-binding properties of a biological nanostructure, the TMV [Tobacco Mosaic Virus], in the development of novel functional materials and fabrication processes for energy microsystems applications. The TMV is a high aspect ratio cylindrical plant virus that can be genetically engineered to include amino acids with enhanced metal-binding properties. These genetic modifications facilitate electroless plating of the molecules as well as self-assembly onto various substrates. The developed processes will be incorporated in the fabrication of new, nanostructured small-scale energy storage devices. 2, record 1, English, - biological%20nanostructure

Una nanoestructura biológica es simplemente una molécula biológica (o un agrupamiento de ellas) cuyo tamaño va del orden desde unos pocos nanómetros hasta cientos de ellos; ejemplos de éstas son: la doble hélice de ADN [ácido desoxirribonucleico] con un diámetro de 2 nm (aunque su longitud es mucho mayor), el cual se encuentra plegado en los cromosomas (de una micra de diámetro por 5 de largo). 1, record 1, Spanish, - nanoestructura%20biol%C3%B3gica
