Abstract:
Apparatus and methods to sequence DNA. A DNA sequencing device includes a passage, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The passage has a width and a length. The first and second electrodes are exposed within the passage and spaced apart from each other to form an electrode gap. The electrode gap is no greater than about 2 nm. The DNA sequencing device is operable to measure with the first and second electrodes a change in electronic signal in response to nucleotides of a DNA strand passing through the electrode gap.

Claim (Index 20):
A method of sequencing DNA, the method comprising:\n providing a DNA sequencing device having a passage formed in a substrate, and first and second electrodes, the first and second electrodes being exposed within the passage and spaced apart from each other to form an electrode gap, the electrode gap being no greater than about 2 nm; passing a DNA strand through the electrode gap; measuring an electronic signal using the first and second electrodes as the DNA strand passes through the electrode gap, the electronic signal corresponding to at least one nucleotide of the DNA strand.
