Journal ArticleDOI

Room-temperature transistor based on a single carbon nanotube

TL;DR: In this paper, the fabrication of a three-terminal switching device at the level of a single molecule represents an important step towards molecular electronics and has attracted much interest, particularly because it could lead to new miniaturization strategies in the electronics and computer industry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Individual single-wall carbon nanotubes as quantum wires

TL;DR: In this article, electrical transport measurements on individual single-wall nanotubes have been performed to confirm the theoretical predictions of single-walled nanotube quantum wires, and they have been shown to act as genuine quantum wires.
Journal ArticleDOI

The bacteriophage φ29 portal motor can package DNA against a large internal force

TL;DR: The force–velocity relationship of the motor is established and it is found that the rate-limiting step of the machine's cycle is force dependent even at low loads, suggesting that this force may be available for initiating the ejection of the DNA from the capsid during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Empirical fitness landscapes reveal accessible evolutionary paths

TL;DR: This work presents the first view on empirical evolutionary landscapes, which can be reconstructed in the laboratory, and asks why particular evolutionary paths are taken.
