Abstract:
1. A method of fabricating a nanopore structure with nanopore for sensing a portion of a nanoscale moiety, comprising: (a) providing a first electrode having a portion of a nanopore there through, the portion of the nanopore defining an electrode edge; (b) depositing an insulator on the first electrode adjacent to the nanopore, the insulator having a portion of the nanopore there through and defining an insulator edge, the insulator edge overhanging the first electrode edge; and (c) depositing a second electrode on the insulator adjacent to the nanopore, the second electrode having a portion of the nanopore there through and defining the second electrode edge, the second electrode edge overhanging the insulator edge to define the nanopore structure.
