Nanopores-nanosized holes that can transport ions and molecules are very promising devices for genomic screening, in particular DNA sequencing. Solid-state nanopores currently suffer from the drawback, however, that the channel constituting the pore is long, similar to 100 times ...
Nanopores have been successfully employed as a new tool to rapidly detect single biopolymers, in particular DNA. When a molecule is driven through a nanopore by an externally applied electric field, it causes a characteristic temporary change in the trans-pore current. Here, we e ...
Solid-state nanopores are an emerging class of single-molecule sensors. Whereas most studies so far focused on doublestranded DNA (dsDNA) molecules, exploration of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is of great interest as well, for example to employ such a nanopore device to read out t ...
