Science a Go Go - Nanomaterial Error-Correction Process Mimics Nature:
"Although a great deal of progress has been made in the self-assembly of nanomaterials, defects that occur during the assembly process present major problems for critical applications such as molecular electronics and photonics. To date, efforts to overcome these assembly errors have focused on either minimizing errors or designing devices that can tolerate errors, but a new procedure developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign may provide a much more elegant solution."
