Plasmonic and nanopore sensors have separately received much attention for achieving
single‐molecule precision. A plasmonic “hotspot” confines and enhances optical excitation …

The performance of solid-state nanopores as promising biosensors is severely hampered by
low-frequency 1/f noise in the through-pore ionic current recordings. Here, we develop a …

The ability to sense proteins and protein‐related interactions at the single‐molecule level is
becoming of increasing importance to understand biological processes and diseases better …

Using nanopores for single-molecule sequencing of proteins–similar to nanopore-based
sequencing of DNA–faces multiple challenges, including unfolding of the complex tertiary …

Amplification‐free genome analysis can revolutionize biology and medicine by uncovering
genetic variations among individuals. Here, the authors report on a 3D‐integrated nanopore …

Understanding water behavior in confined volumes is important in applications ranging from
water purification to healthcare devices. Especially relevant are wetting and dewetting …

The localized functionalization of pores and channels of micrometric and sub‐micrometric
sizes is a bottleneck in surface chemistry. A method for the regioselective chemical …

In this paper, an interesting glycerol behavior which can lead to the formation of composite
polymer membranes with uniform pores in their surface layers is reported. Specifically, when …

Polymers anchored to surfaces play an important role in nature and technology, and
regulate diverse interfacial phenomena in areas such as tribology and colloidal stability …
