A rapidly expanding area of research in materials science involves the development of routes to complex 3D structures with feature sizes in the mesoscopic range (that is, between tens of nanometres ...

Kirigami enhances the Japanese art form of origami, which involves folding paper to create 3D designs, by strategically incorporating cuts to the paper prior to folding. The method enables artists to ...

Imagine if you could "print" a tiny skyscraper using DNA instead of steel. That’s what researchers at Columbia and Brookhaven are doing—constructing intricate 3D nanostructures by harnessing the ...
