Polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites: preparation, properties and uses of a new class of materials
TL;DR: In this article, a review of polymer-layered silicate nanocomposites is presented, where the polymer chains are sandwiched in between silicate layers and exfoliated layers are more or less uniformly dispersed in the polymer matrix.

Molecular self-assembly and nanochemistry: a chemical strategy for the synthesis of nanostructures.
TL;DR: The ability to prepare structures in the upper part of this range of sizes would open a route to structures comparable in size (and perhaps complementary in function) to those that can be prepared by microlithography and other techniques of microfabrication.

Atomic and molecular manipulation with the scanning tunneling microscope
Joseph A. Stroscio,D. M. Eigler +1 more
TL;DR: Recent developments in scanning tunneling microscopy have made atom and molecular manipulation a reality; single atoms can be placed at selected positions and structures can be built to a particular design atom-by-atom.

Bacteriophytochromes are photochromic histidine kinases using a biliverdin chromophore
Seong-Hee Bhoo,Seth J. Davis,Seth J. Davis,Joseph M. Walker,Baruch Karniol,Richard D. Vierstra +5 more
TL;DR: Both their presence in many diverse bacteria and their simplified assembly with biliverdin suggest that BphPs are the progenitors of phytochrome-type photoreceptors.
