TRANSLOCATION AND NUCLEOTIDE READING MECHANISMS FOR SEQUENCING NANODEVICES

摘要

By driving molecules electrophoretically through a nanopore, single molecule detection can be achieved. To enhance translocational control, functionalized and non-functionalized electrodes are strategically placed around or above a nanopore. Changes in transmission spectra and input voltage detected by electrodes allow accurate identification of single molecules as they pass through a nanopore.
