Light Bulbs from DNA

Light Bulbs from DNA
The evolution towards organic bulb had just been realized! The researchers from the University of Connecticut, led by chemistry professor Gregory Sotzing, successfully created a bright white-light-emitting devices by coating UV LEDs (Ultra Violet Light Emitting Diode) with flourescent dye-doped DNA. The DNAs were spinned into nanofibers strands prior it was coated to the UV LEDs. The new material is capable to absorbs ... Full story
