We present an overview of current progress and research challenges in the field of nanoparticle assembly, touching on the following topics: (1) historical perspective; (2) consideration of what is a nanoparticle; (3) contrast between nanoparticle self-assembly and top-down construction; (4) opportunities for nanoparticles with more intelligent sub-structures; (5) opportunities for nanoparticle systems cued to interact subtly in space and time. In this personal and subjective account, certain holy grails for nanoparticle science and technology are identified.
我们概述了纳米颗粒组装领域的当前进展和研究挑战,涉及以下主题:(1)历史视角;(2)对纳米颗粒的定义考量;(3)纳米颗粒自组装与自上而下构建的对比;(4)具有更智能子结构的纳米颗粒的机遇;(5)纳米颗粒系统在空间和时间上进行微妙相互作用的机遇。在这篇个人化且主观的叙述中,确定了纳米颗粒科学技术的某些圣杯。
