Nanopores are nanometer scale holes formed naturally by proteins or cells, and can be used for a variety of applications, including sequencing DNA and detecting anthrax. They can be integrated into artificially constructed encapsulated cells of silicon wafers while allowing smal…
Tip-Based Nanofabrication: Fundamentals and Applications discusses the development of cantilevered nanotips¡ and how they evolved from scanning probe microscopy and are able to manipulate¡ environments at nanoscale on substrates generating different nanoscale patterns¡ and struc…
Interest in structures with nanometer-length features has significantly increased as experimental techniques for their fabrication have become possible. The study of phenomena in this area is termed nanoscience, and is a research focus of chemists, pure and applied physics, elec…
