Construction and Electrical Characterization of 0.9 nm Tall Channels Made via Pyryl Phosphonic Acid (PYPA) Self-assembly

Dong J., Parviz B.A., Yip H.L., Ma H., Jen A.K-Y., University of Washington, US

Molecular self-assembly can yield well-defined systems for charge carrier transport for the construction of a variety of devices such as field effect transistors and biosensors. We report a simple method to create an extremely confined [...]

Sample Concentration by Asymmetry EOF flow in Micro/Nano Channels with O2/H2O Plasma Treated Channel Surfaces

Wu R-Q, Tseng F-G, Yang C-S, Cheing C-C, National Tsing Hua University, TW

In this study, we propose a new technique to concentrate sample effectively, which employs different surface treatment on the top and bottom of micro/nano channels. This treatment carries out different zeta-potentials on the opposite walls [...]

Transient Analysis of Electroosmotic Flow in Nano-diameter Channels

Qiao R., Aluru N.R., University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, US

Transient analysis of electroosmotic flow in a nano-diameter channel is presented. The time for flow to reach steady state in a nano-diameter channel for various Debye lengths is investigated by solving the Navier-Stokes equations in [...]
