Abstract
A high-resolution biosensor for analysis of biomolecules is provided. The high-resolution biosensor comprises a functional unit comprising a conducting material with an atomic-scale thickness and a micro-nano fluidic system unit. The functional unit is capable of achieving a resolution required to detect a characteristic of individual biomolecule, and the micro-nano fluidic system unit is capable of controlling the movement and conformation of the biomolecule investigated. The functional unit comprises a first insulating layer, conducting functional layer, a second insulating layer, and a nanopore extending through the full thickness of the functional unit. The micro-nano fluidic system unit comprises a first electrophoresis electrode or micropump, a first fluidic reservoir, a second fluidic reservoir, a second electrophoresis electrode or micropump, and micro-nanometer separation channels. The nanopore connects to the micro-nanometer separation channels. Interactions between the biomolecule and conducting functional layer occur as the biomolecule translocates through the nanopore of the functional unit.
