“…[1][2][3] Most of the biomolecular-nanowire templates from DNAs or peptides need to be fabricated for them to function in a suitable electric device, and there is an extensive effort to coat them with metals and semiconductors. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] While these biomolecular-nanowire templates appear to be promising building blocks for nanodevices, it is essential to have size monodispersity, rigidness, and product yield to impact the real world. For example, biomolecular templates self-assembled from peptidic monomers yield polydisperse materials with heterogeneous diameters and uncontrolled length through the self-assembly process.…”
