Rice Engineers Develop Light-Driven Nanosubmarines

Scientists at Rice University have created single-molecule submersibles that contain just 244 atoms and are powered by ultraviolet light. Though they’re not quite ready for boarding a lá “Fantastic Voyage,” nanoscale submarines created at Rice University are proving themselves seaworthy. Each of the single-molecule, 244-atom submersibles built in the Rice lab of chemist James Tour […]
