Constructing a Quantum Mannequin with Nanoscale Carbon Molecules

Constructing a Quantum Mannequin with Nanoscale Carbon Molecules

Reviewed by Lexie NookMar 17 2025 Empa researchers have experimentally recreated a elementary theoretical mannequin from quantum physics, initially proposed by Nobel Prize winner Werner Heisenberg. The experiment was primarily based on “quantum Lego,” composed of tiny carbon molecules generally known as nanographenes. This artificial bottom-up strategy permits versatile experimental research of quantum applied sciences,…

RNA origami: Synthetic cytoskeletons to construct artificial cells

Molecular motors in motion: visualizing alpha-cyclodextrin motion alongside polymer chains

Polypseudorotaxanes, by which α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) rings shuttle alongside a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chain, are promising candidates for molecular machines. Nevertheless, their molecular dynamics have remained unclear. Researchers have now used fast-scanning atomic power microscopy (FS-AFM) to visualise α-CD rings shifting alongside a PEG chain. This breakthrough establishes FS-AFM as a strong device for analyzing supramolecular…
