Much more than ever, nucleic acids are recognized as key building blocks in many of lifeʼs
processes, and the science of studying these molecular wonders at the single-molecule …

This tutorial review will introduce and explore the fundamental aspects of nanopore (bio)
sensing, fabrication, modification, and the emerging technologies and applications that both …

The size of the sensing region in solid-state nanopores is determined by the size of the pore
and the thickness of the pore membrane, so ultrathin membranes such as graphene and …

Solid-state nanopores can act as single-molecule sensors and could potentially be used to
rapidly sequence DNA molecules. However, nanopores are typically fabricated in insulating …

A major goal in medical research is to develop a DNA sequencing technique that is capable
of reading an entire human genome at low cost,,,. Recently, it was proposed that DNA …

We demonstrate the assembly of functional hybrid nanopores for single molecule sensing by
inserting DNA origami structures into solid-state nanopores. In our experiments, single …

Nanopores could potentially be used to perform single-molecule DNA sequencing at low
cost and with high throughput,,,. Although single base resolution and differentiation have …

Probably no other field of statistical physics at the borderline of soft matter and biological
physics has caused such a flurry of papers as polymer translocation since the 1994 …

With the aim of developing a DNA sequencing methodology, we theoretically examine the
feasibility of using nanoplasmonics to control the translocation of a DNA molecule through a …

Nanopores are emerging as powerful tools for the detection and identification of
macromolecules in aqueous solution. In this review, we discuss the recent development of …
