Electrically tunable solid-state silicon nanopore ion filter
We show that a nanopore in a silicon membrane connected to a voltage source can be used as an electrically tunable ion filter. By applying a voltage between the heavily doped semiconductor and the electrolyte, it is possible to invert the ion population inside the nanopore and vary the conductance for both cations and anions in order to achieve selective conduction of ions even in the presence ...
متن کاملSolid-State Nanopore
Solid-state nanopore has captured the attention of many researchers due to its characteristic of nanoscale. Now, different fabrication methods have been reported, which can be summarized into two broad categories: "top-down" etching technology and "bottom-up" shrinkage technology. Ion track etching method, mask etching method chemical solution etching method, and high-energy particle etching an...
متن کاملElectrically tunable hot-silicon terahertz attenuator
We have developed a continuously tunable, broadband terahertz attenuator with a transmission tuning range greater than 10. Attenuation tuning is achieved electrically, by simply changing the DC voltage applied to a heating wire attached to a bulk silicon wafer, which controls its temperature between room temperature and !550 K, with the corresponding free-carrier density adjusted between !10 cm...
متن کاملElectrically tunable porous silicon active mirrors
We demonstrate tunable mirrors that consist of a porous silicon microcavity infiltrated with liquid crystal molecules. We show theoretically that by utilizing the electro-optic properties of liquid crystals and the sensitivity of the microcavity resonance position to small changes in optical thickness, the porous silicon active mirror can be switched on (high reflectance) and off (low reflectan...
متن کاملElectrically facilitated translocation of protein through solid nanopore
Nanopores have been proven as versatile single-molecule sensors for individual unlabeled biopolymer detection and characterization. In the present work, a relative large nanopore with a diameter of about 60 nm has been used to detect protein translocation driven by a series of applied voltages. Compared with previous studied small nanopores, a distinct profile of protein translocation through a...
