Abstract

Biomolecular motors, in particular motor proteins, are ideally suited to introduce chemically powered movement of selected components into devices engineered at the micro‐ and nanoscale level. The design of such hybrid β€œbio/nano”‐devices requires suitable synthetic environments, and the identification of unique applications. We discuss current approaches to utilize active transport and actuation on a molecular scale, and we give an outlook to the future.

## Abstract **Summary:** Future nanodevices such as levers, valves, pumps, and other functional parts will require molecular motors to generate mechanical work. Electrochemically switchable single polymer chains are possible candidates for such motors. The proof of principle that such a single macr
