We demonstrate a simple and fast method for self-assembly-driven micropatterning of protein functionalized magnetic beads on glass. We use positively charged aminosilane micro-patterns as template for selective immobilization of streptavidin-coated beads b ...
Self-organizing circuits are able to grow, to self-replicate, and to self-repair. These properties are implemented in hardware thanks to configuration, cloning and cicatrization mechanisms. They are realized by the configuration layer of the POEtic tissue, ...

In this paper, we review half a century of research on the design of systems displaying (physical) self-assembly of macroscopic components. We report on the experience gained in the study of 22 such systems, exhibiting components ranging from passive mecha ...
This thesis presents the first experimental results of a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) investigation of rubrene at the supramolecular, molecular and submolecular level. Based on its semiconducting and fluores ...
The multicellular structure of biological organisms and the interpretation in each of their cells of a chemical program (the DNA string or genome) is the source of inspiration for the Embryonics (embryonic electronics) project, whose final objective is the ...
In this paper, we discuss the self-assembling capabilities of the swarm-bot, a distributed robotics concept that lies at the intersection between collective and self-reconfigurable robotics. A swarm-bot comprises autonomous mobile robots called s-bots. S-b ...
Bio-inspiration borrows three properties characteristic of living organisms: multicellular architecture, cellular division, and cellular differentiation. Implemented in silicon according to these properties, our self-organizing systems are able to grow, to ...
Up to now, only a few collective or modular robot systems have proven capable of letting separate and autonomous units, or groups of units, self-assemble. In each case, ad hoc control algorithms have been developed. The aim of this paper is to show that a ...
Herein we describe the structure and dynamics of self-assembled nano-objects generated from poly(ethylene glycol) based (PEG-ylated) coiled-coil hybrid block copolymers. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments on spin-labeled samples provided a s ...
