Nanosensor and method of manufacturing same

摘要

A nanosensor may include a substrate that has a hole formed therein, a first insulating layer that is disposed on the substrate and has a nanopore formed therein, first and second electrodes that are disposed on the first insulating layer and are spaced apart from each other, first and second electrode pads that are disposed on the first and second electrodes, respectively, and a protective layer disposed on the first and second electrode pads. A method of manufacturing a nanosensor may include forming a first insulating layer, graphene, and a metal layer on a substrate, patterning the metal layer and the graphene, forming a protective layer on a portion of the graphene and the metal layer, exposing a portion of the graphene by removing a portion of the protective layer, forming a hole in the substrate, and forming a nanopore in the first insulating layer and the graphene to be connected to the hole.

1. A nanosensor comprising:
a substrate having a hole; a first insulating layer disposed on the substrate and having a first nanopore at a location corresponding to the hole in the substrate; first and second electrodes disposed on the first insulating layer, wherein the first and second electrodes are spaced apart from each other with the first nanopore positioned therebetween; a first electrode pad disposed on a portion of the first electrode; a second electrode pad disposed on a portion of the second electrode; a protective layer, formed of an oxide, contacting at least a portion of the first and second electrode pads, and leaving a portion of the first and second electrodes exposed; and a first portion of a second insulating layer contacting the protective layer and exposed portions of the first and second electrodes and a second portion of the second insulating layer spaced apart from the first and second electrodes, and wherein the second insulating layer is formed of a nitride, and wherein the first and second electrodes pads are disposed between the second portion of the second insulating layer and the first and second electrodes, respectively.
