Biotemplated Nanostructured Materials

Sotiropoulou, Sofia, Sierra-Sastre, Yajaira, Mark, Sonny S., Batt, Carl A.·2008·Chemistry of Materials

Abstract

Biological materials naturally display an astonishing variety of sophisticated nanostructures that are difficult to obtain even with the most technologically advanced synthetic methodologies. As the needs for nanoengineered materials with improved performance characteristics are becoming increasingly important, the potential of biological scaffolds for the fabrication of novel types of nanostructures is being actively explored. This review presents an overview of “biotemplating” as an emerging, unique approach for the synthesis and organization of inorganic nanostructures into well-defined architectures. The technological significance of these architectures is emphasized. We review examples of biological templates explored to date (in terms of their origin and structure) and the success of a variety of methodologies in providing control over the size, crystallinity, and surface chemistry of the nanomaterials.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
