Biomimetic solid-state nanochannels enable new modalities for biosensing. In the last
decade, these nanofluidic architectures have been widely studied due to their rapid and …

Recent advances mean that arrays of nearly uniform cylindrical, conical and pyramidal
shaped pores can be produced in several types of substrates. Surface modification of …

Similar to ionizing radiation with low LET, swift heavy ions (SHI) produce excitation and
ionization as they pass through a polymer. Due to a high local confinement of dissipated …

With the development of the nano-fabrication and nanofluidics, nanoporous membranes
have shown great potential in applications such as molecular separation, energy …

Asymmetrically shaped nanopores have been shown to rectify the ionic current flowing
through pores in a fashion similar to a pn junction in a solid-state diode. Such asymmetric …

We have investigated the effect of nanopore geometry on translocation properties of poly
(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) membranes. In order to vary the cone angles of the conically …

A method for the fabrication of different pore shapes in polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-
based track etched membranes (TEMs) is reported. A multi-step etching technique involving …

Abstract 650 μm thick PADC foils are exposed to 7 GeV Silicon and 17.48 GeV Nickel
accelerated ions at particle fluence of about 1000 cm− 2. The relativistic ions passed …

The recent introduction of slow vacuum filtration (SVF) technology has shown great promise
for reproducibly creating high‐quality, large‐area aligned films of single‐wall carbon …

Arrays of nickel nanowires with aspect ratio of∼ 1200 and diameters ranging between 25
and 100nm have been fabricated by electrodeposition in etched ion track templates …
