This project explores biomimetic strategies to create new structural materials by emulating how organisms form biogenic crystals. It focuses on controlling crystal properties and structures to develop advanced materials with unique functionalities.
In the course of biomineralization, organisms produce a large variety of functional biogenic crystals that exhibit fascinating mechanical, optical, magnetic and other characteristics.
More specifically, when living organisms grow crystals they can effectively control polymorph selection as well as the crystal morphology, shape, and even atomic structure.
Materials existing in nature have extraordinary and specific functions, yet the materials employed in nature are quite different from those eng…
