The digital design paradox

Russell Alexander Loveridge

The emergence of computation in design is an ongoing evolution, rather than a technological revolution. Contemporary digital tools have influenced the image of architecture, as object, as shelter, and as icon – but digital design has yet to change our unde ...

Nanomechanics of Streptavidin Hubs for Molecular Materials

Fabrizio Benedetti

A new strategy is reported for creating protein-based nanomaterials by genetically fusing large polypeptides to monomeric streptavidin and exploiting the propensity of streptavidin monomers(SM) to self-assemble into stable tetramers. We have characterized ...

Low-Voltage p- and n-Type Organic Self-Assembled Monolayer Field Effect Transistors

Francesco Stellacci, Kislon Voitchovsky

We report on p- and n-type organic self-assembled monolayer held effect transistors. On the base of quaterthiophene and fullerene units, multifunctional molecules were synthesized, which have the ability to self-assemble and provide multifunctional monolay ...

Object Duplicate Detection

Péter Vajda

With the technological evolution of digital acquisition and storage technologies, millions of images and video sequences are captured every day and shared in online services. One way of exploring this huge volume of images and videos is through searching a ...

From Web Data to Entities and Back

Zoltán Miklós, Michele Catasta, Nicolas Bonvin, Julien Gaugaz, Ekaterini Ioannou

We present the Entity Name System (ENS), an enabling infrastructure, which can host descriptions of named entities and provide unique identifiers, on large-scale. In this way, it opens new perspectives to realize entity-oriented, rather than keyword-orient ...

A ruthenium-based metallostar: synthesis, sensitized luminescence and 1H relaxivity

Lothar Helm, Jean-Claude Bünzli, Alain Borel, Loïck Moriggi, Annina Aebischer

Ru-based metallostars Na4{Ru[Ln2bpy-DTTA2(H2O)4]3} (Ln = Y, Gd, and Eu) have been self-assembled in aqueous solution and their relaxivity and optical properties unravelled. The ynthesis and the purification of the new, highly stable heptametallic entities ...

Method for Automatic Quality Control of Data in In-Vivo Images

A method for quality control assessment in single time-point in-vivo imaging data related to imaging of objects, includes acquiring an in-vivo image of the object with imaging apparatus, defining a background image corresponding to an imaged air of the in- ...

Supramolecular structures of polypeptides

Daniela Silvano

The formation of supramolecular structures is a central issue in bio- and nanotechnology and therein plays an important role for many novel developments such as biocompatible materials for integrating living cells or coating for implantable sensing devices ...

Solution behavior of peptide and peptide-hybrid materials

Harald Nuhn

Peptide based and peptide hybrid materials represent two interesting and challenging classes of biomaterials. Both classes consist of and contain, respectively, one or more polypeptide blocks, endowing the resulting polymers with enhanced self-assembly pro ...
