Abstract Although many nanodevices have been described in recent years, nanoparticles capable of communicating with each other have been barely reported. Traditional communication technologies cannot be applied on the nanoscale, but a potential approach to achieve this goal is to mimic how nature communicates by exchanging information using molecules. Based on these concepts, some examples using DNA, enzymes and small molecules for information processing, nanoparticles capable of modulating chemical communication between cells and nanoparticles that can communicate with each another have been reported. Communication between nanodevices may find applications in different areas and a number of future new results are envisioned in this research field.

纳米器件之间的化学通讯

摘要 尽管近年来已经描述了许多纳米器件，但能够相互通信的纳米颗粒却鲜有报道。传统的通信技术无法应用于纳米级，但实现这一目标的一种潜在方法是通过使用分子交换信息来模拟自然的通信方式。基于这些概念，已经报道了一些使用DNA、酶和小分子进行信息处理的例子，能够调节细胞之间化学通讯的纳米颗粒和可以相互通讯的纳米颗粒。纳米器件之间的通信可能会在不同领域找到应用，并且在该研究领域设想了许多未来的新成果。
