The M13 Filamentous Virus – Bottom-up assembly techniques mimic processes in the natural world to arrange nanoscale components into larger scale structures. Such techniques are capable of precise assembly of devices on the nanometer scale, as well as building novel nanoscale or heterogeneous materials. The Haberer Lab uses the M13 filamentous virus, a biologically-based template, to assemble materials for electronic and optoelectronic applications from the bottom up.
