Antiferromagnetic Coupling of Stacked Cu~(II)-Salen Complexes in DNA

摘要

On the way to novel bottom-up generated functional materials that might play a key role in future nanotechnology, the use of DNA has become a major strategy. The relative ease of automated DNA synthesis has been exploited to build a wide range of two-and three-dimensional structures from unmodified and modified DNA strands. Currently, the implementation of real functions such as long-distance electron transfer or molecular magnetism is pursued as the next major step.
