"Man-Made Nanomachines" by Joseph Wang

"Man-Made Nanomachines" by Joseph Wang, NanoEngineering; Member, Calit2 Executive Council at UCSD

The remarkable performance of biomotors is inspiring scientists to create synthetic nanomachines that mimic the function of these amazing natural systems. This presentation will discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the design and operation of artificial nanomotors and demonstrate their prospects for diverse biomedical applications. While artificial nanomotors still pale compared to nature biomotors, our recent work indicate significant improvements in the velocity, power, motion control, cargo-towing force, scope and versatility of such catalytic nanomotors. The greatly improved capabilities of chemically-powered artificial nanomotors could pave the way to exciting and important applications ranging from drug delivery to nanofabrication, and to sophisticated nanoscale devices performing complex tasks.
