Abstract
- The article offers information on nanotechnology by focusing on molecular robots. It informs that two research papers have explained the latest steps in order to implement a programmable molecular robot. These papers have discovered their origins to the field of computer network architecture, that is Decnet (DNA) in 1994 which later transformed into the field of DNA nanotechnology. Several interesting developments have taken place in this field. One of the development is the design and building of motile molecules which is also known as DNA walkers. There are also many hidden concepts in these papers. Nanomachines have been firstly used to perform in the the evolution of DNA nanotechnology. It states that molecular robots have restricted ability to store a fair amount of information.
