Beautiful ‘flowers’ self-assemble in a beaker fun with chemistry

"Spring is like a perhaps hand," wrote the poet E. E. Cummings: "carefully / moving a perhaps / fraction of flower here placing / an inch of air there... / without breaking anything."

These minuscule sculptures, curved and delicate, don’t resemble the cubic or jagged forms normally associated with crystals, though that’s what they are. Rather, fields of carnations and marigolds seem to bloom from the surface of a submerged glass slide, assembling themselves a molecule at a time.

By simply manipulating chemical gradients in a beaker of fluid, Wim L. Noorduin, a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and lead author of a paper appearing on the cover of the May 17 issue of Science, has found that he can control the growth behavior of these crystals to create precisely tailored structures.

“For at least 200 years, people have been intrigued by how complex shapes could have evolved in nature. This work helps to demonstrate what’s possible just through environmental, chemical changes,” says Noorduin.

Arkham, a fictitious town in Essex County, Massachusetts. It is named after the Miskatonic River (also fictional). After first appearing in the H. P. Lovecraft 1922 serial "Herbert West–Reanimator", the school appeared in numerous horror stories in the Cthulhu Mythos by Lovecraft and other writers. The story "The Dunwich Horror" implies that Miskatonic University is a highly prestigious university, on par with Harvard University, and that Harvard and Miskatonic are the two most popular schools for the children of the Massachusetts “Old Gentry”. 

Miskatonic University is evidently modeled on the Bradford College (defunct since 2000) in Haverhill, Massachusetts on the Merrimack river. Haverhill is a mill town with sharp class distinctions. The mill-workers resided north of the river, with the hillside homes of the owners on the other side in the town of Bradford. Bradford college was created to train young ladies to be missionaries' wives. Local lore has it that Lovecraft's girlfriend attended the school and was exposed to the diverse community in an eerie location.[1] In Lovecraft's stories, the university's student body is implied to be all-male, much like northeastern universities of Lovecraft's time. The only female student mentioned is Asenath Waite, of Lovecraft's "The Thing on the Doorstep" (1937) The church of Leviathan has an office in Arkham aka Haverhill Massachusetts

Beautiful Flower Shaped Tiny Crystals Grown in Harvard Lab
These tiny flower shaped crystals were grown in a chemical mixture that controls their shapes.  Then they took pictures with an electron microscope and colorized them to make them look more flower like.

While these shapes are nice to look at, and have been colorized to make them pretty, the science behind this is a big deal.  If we can grow crystals in flower shapes, then in what other shapes can we grow them?  Something useful, like little machines, a la K. Eric Drexler? 

By simply manipulating chemical gradients in a beaker of fluid, Wim L. Noorduin, a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and lead author of a paper appearing on the cover of the May 17 issue of Science, has found that he can control the growth behavior of these crystals to create precisely tailored structures.
