#Researchers create unique graphene nanopores with optical antennas for DNA sequencing High-speed reading of the genetic code should get a boost with the creation of the world's first graphene nanopores pores measuring approximately 2 nanometers in diameter that feature a"built-in
"With our integrated graphene nanopore with plasmonic optical antenna, we can obtain direct optical DNA sequence detection,
"A key to the success of this effort is the single-step photothermal mechanism that enables the creation of graphene nanopores with self-aligned plasmonic optical antennas.
"The results of this study were reported in Nano Letters in a paper titled"Graphene nanopore with a Self-Integrated Optical Antenna. e
Karnik says graphene nanopores could be useful as sensors for instance, detecting ions of mercury, potassium, or fluoride in solution.
In the future, it may be possible to make graphene nanopores capable of sifting out trace amounts of gold ions from other metal ions, like silver and aluminum.
and Sean Oern from MIT and Juan-carlos Idrobo from Oak ridge National Laboratory, publish their results today in the journal Nature Nanotechnology("Heterogeneous sub-continuum ionic transport in statistically isolated graphene nanopores").
