Detection and interrogation of biomolecules via nanoscale devices: From DNA sequencing to fundamental physics
\n<\/b><\/h2>\n

Single-molecule techniques have revolutionized science, giving an unprecedented level of information about physical processes at the nanoscale and uncovering phenomena otherwise concealed by bulk or ensemble\u00a0measurements. Typically these techniques make use of optical methods or electron microscopy. However, transport \u2014 the flow of ions, electrons, and energy \u2014 also probes molecules and physical processes at the atomic\u00a0level. For instance, electronic transport across a nanoscale gap containing a DNA nucleotide can determine which of the four bases is present. Monitoring the electronic current as a single strand of DNA, e.g., translocates\u00a0through a nanopore housing two electrodes may thus provide a platform for a rapid, low-cost, and portable \u2014 i.e., point-of-care \u2014 DNA sequencing technology. Thermal transport, on the other hand, tells us about fluctuations\u00a0and their motion through molecules. When a thermal or energy current flows through a biomolecule, in particular, it therefore reveals the nature of structural transitions and nonlinear interactions, the basic mechanisms by which\u00a0biomolecules function. As well, ion transport through engineered, confined spaces of nanoscale dimensions supplies a means to quantify the role of ion-water interaction \u2014 i.e., hydration \u2014 in biological ion channels. In addition\u00a0to their possible impact in medicine and biology, transport processes offer ideal test beds to study open scientific issues in the relatively unexplored area at the interface between solids, liquids, and biomolecules at nanometer\u00a0length scales.
