High-Bandwidth Solid-State Nanopore Sensors [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2012
Nanopores are attractive electrochemical sensors for their single-molecule sensitivity and simple experimental setup. Many of the electronic systems used for nanopore measurements are inherited from electrophysiology applications, and as a result they are primarily optimized for current levels of 50pA or less, at bandwidths below 10kHz.

Plasmonic Nanomachines: Creating Local Potential Gradients and Motions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Plasmonic nanomachines can generate optical, thermal, and chemical potential gradients to drive directional rectilinear, rotational, and twisting motions at the nanometer scale. The integration of multimodal plasmonic forces with functional materials and programmed structural distortions enables precise spatiotemporal actuation, thereby providing a ...

Thermodynamic bifurcations of boiling in solid-state nanopores

Physical Review Research
Boiling heat transfer is the basis of many commonly used cooling techniques. In cooling of electronic devices, for example, it is desirable to further miniaturize heat exchangers to achieve higher heat transfer, and thus it is necessary to understand ...

Bioelectrical Interfaces Beyond Excitable Cells: Cancer, Aging, and Gene Expression Modulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The investigation of biological conductivity has evolved from its classical foundation based on ionic fluxes underpinning cardiac and neuronal excitability to a multifaceted regulator of cellular physiology. Traditional approaches for probing electrical events in living matter focused largely on action potentials recording.

Light‐Programmable Interfaces: From Molecular Photoswitching to Adaptive Membrane Separations

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This review advances an interface‐centered framework for light‐responsive membranes, linking molecular photoswitches (azobenzene (AZO), spiropyran (SP), diarylethene (DAE), donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASA), photoacid) to integration strategies in polymeric, porous, self‐assembled, and mixed‐matrix systems.
