Description

≪ Desc / Clms Page number 1 > NANOPOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

The present invention relates to a nano-pore device and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a nano-pore device capable of analyzing a nano-sized substance such as DNA and a method of manufacturing the nano-pore device.

The nanopore device has the characteristic of controlling very small amount of ion transport and analyzing the substances passing through the nanopore. Therefore, in recent years, the nanopore device has been actively studied.

For example, since a nanopore device has a structure similar to an ion channel of a living organism, a base such as A, G, T, or C included in DNA-like materials passing through a nanopore formed on the nanopore device Sequencing is underway. When a material such as the DNA passes through the nanopore, there is an energy barrier due to electrostatic interaction or geometric limitation. Therefore, the DNA can pass through the energy barrier. Thus, the DNA passing through the nanopore can block the flow of current due to the movement of ions flowing along the inside of the pore. As a result, a relatively low potential difference occurs when the DNA passes through compared to the potential at the time when only normal ions pass, so that the current is reduced. Research on the sequencing of the DNA using the size of the blocking current is under way, which is called a blocking current.

In addition, research is underway to analyze nanomaterials, such as microRNAs, nanowires, and nanoscale polymers, that are smaller than the size of nanopores, as well as DNA.

However, the pair of electrodes included in the nanopore device are generally located in a storage container in which an object such as DNA is stored. In this case, disturbances such as the movement of other materials or ions except the subject existing between the two electrodes occur. The accuracy of the inspection may deteriorate due to the influence of the disturbance.

Further, cloaking may occur at the entrance or exit of the nanopore, so that the entrance of the nanopore is closed and slowly opened again to cause the subject to move into the nanopore. As a result, it is difficult to precisely confirm the movement of the object, and it is difficult to detect a signal due to the flow of the object within the nanopore.

In addition, since the thickness of nanopore is too thick to analyze the nucleotide sequence of existing DNA, it is very difficult to precisely measure the change of blocking current according to the change of salt period interval.

Nanopore element

1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a nanopore device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a nanopore device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a nanopore structure 100, a first electrode 210, and a second electrode 220.

The nanopore structure 100 is formed with a nanopore 105 having an inlet 101 and an outlet 103 so that the object can pass therethrough.

The nanopore 105 has a size of 100 nm or less and a length of 10,000 nm or less. Further, the nanopore 105 may have a size that widens or narrows toward the bottom.

The first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 are spaced apart from each other between the inlet and the outlet. The ends of the first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 are exposed to the inside of the nanopore 105. A voltage is applied to the nanopore 105 through the first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 and a current flowing into the nanopore 105 can be measured. The exposed portions of the first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 may be coated using a dielectric material.

The first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 may be arranged close to each other to ensure a constant resolution. However, the first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 should be spaced apart from each other such that they are not electrically influenced. That is, it is preferable that the separation distance is ensured such that a leakage current generated between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 is smaller than a noise generated by the flow of ions in the nanopore device.

As compared with the case where the first and second electrodes are disposed in a reservoir that exists outside the nanopore 105 and accommodates the object to be inspected, the nanopore element 10 according to the embodiments of the present invention The first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 included are disposed between the inlet 101 and the outlet 103 defining the nanopore 105. Therefore, the influence of the disturbance occurring in the reservoir existing outside the nanopore 105 and accommodating the test object can be suppressed. Further, the nanopore element 10 can measure the change of the electric field generated inside the nanopore 105 with an improved sensitivity.

A pair of first and second electrodes 210 and 220 mounted inside the nano pores 105 are spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance to form a gap between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 The blocking current can be precisely measured by the moving subject material.

In one embodiment of the present invention, each of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may have a thickness of 1 μm or less. However, considering the size of the nanopore 105, it is sufficient that the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 are separated from each other. There is no particular limitation on the thickness.

In one embodiment of the present invention, each of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be formed of a metal such as gold, silver or copper, a metal compound such as AgCl or a graphene, Materials and composites thereof, or two-dimensional planar materials such as MoS 2 , WS 2 , h-BN, and composites thereof. Each of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may include an electrochemically stable material whose electrochemical reaction is inhibited with respect to an analyte ion.

Alternatively, a material having excellent electric conductivity such as silicon doped with a metal element is sufficient. Furthermore, a modified two-dimensional planar material doped with an element such as boron (B) or nitrogen may be used for the two-dimensional planar material, and the element that can be doped is not particularly limited. In addition, as a composite of nanomaterials, electrodes such as graphene coated with gold nanoparticles or electrodes composed of a double layer of Cr / Au can be used.

In one embodiment of the present invention, each of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may have a donut shape so as to penetrate the nanopore structure 100 in a horizontal direction. Accordingly, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be entirely surrounded along the circumferential direction of the nanopore 105. Thus, the nanopore element 10 can measure the change of the electric field generated in the nanopore 10 with an improved sensitivity.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the ends of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 inserted in the nanofoure structure 100 may be exposed to the inside of the nanofoil 105 . Thus, the ends of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 can be in direct physical contact with the flowing ionic fluid. However, the exposed portions of the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be shielded by a dielectric material.

2A and 2B are respectively a cross-sectional view and a plan view illustrating a nanopore device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

2A, a nanopore device 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a nanopore structure 100 and a first electrode 210 and a second electrode 220. Referring to FIG.

The first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 may be positioned adjacent to each other to measure a tunneling current. At this time, the first electrode 210 and the second electrode 220 may have a half donut shape. An insulating layer may be interposed between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220. Also, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be symmetric with respect to the nanopore 105 in plan view.

In this case, when the insulating film formed between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 has a thickness of about 1 nm in the horizontal direction, a tunneling current is generated between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 . In this case, when the inspected object flows into the nanopore 105 between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220, the magnitude of the tunneling current changes, Can be measured. For example, when any one of DNA bases is located on the first and second electrodes 210 and 220, a tunneling current value between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 Can be changed.

Referring to FIG. 2A again, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be spaced apart from each other by the insulating layer and may not be overlapped with each other when viewed in plan view. That is, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 are positioned so as to surround the nanopore 105 around the nanopore 105 and are not overlapped with each other when viewed in plan view. Thus, the occurrence of leakage current due to mutual interference between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 can be suppressed.

Referring to FIG. 2B, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 are disposed to face each other with the nanopore 105 as a center.

When the nanomaterial passes between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220, the flow of the nanomaterial interferes with the current flow in the horizontal direction between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 . Thus, the blocking current value can be measured between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220.

At this time, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may have a height difference in a forming position along the vertical direction within the nanopore 105. Therefore, as the size of the nanopore 105 is small, current flow between the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be sensitively disturbed. Of course, the first and second electrodes 210 and 220 may be formed on the same plane, but such a method is very difficult to manufacture. Therefore, a method of manufacturing a nanopore device having the above structure can be relatively easy.

3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a nanopore device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

 A nanopore device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a nanopore structure 100 and a first electrode 210 and a second electrode 220. Further, the nanopore device further includes a third electrode 230 between the first and second electrodes.

The voltage applied to the third electrode 230 is a gate voltage V G , the voltage applied to the first electrode 210 is a source voltage V S and the voltage applied to the second electrode 220 is Drain voltage (V D ). (Not shown) for applying an electric signal to the first to third electrodes 210, 220 and 230. The electrical signal unit may be connected to the first to third electrodes through a probe (not shown).

The nano pore element 10 functions as an ionic field effect transistor (IFET) by a gate voltage (V G ), a source voltage (V s ) and a drain voltage (V D ) can do. When the ions contained in the subject move through the nanopore, an ion current flows and the nanopore 105 acts as a channel for ion movement. Cations and anions ionized from the object can be moved in a specific direction by the source voltage V S and the drain voltage V D applied to the first and second electrodes 210 and 220, respectively. At this time, the ON state and the OFF state of the transistor can be controlled by the gate voltage V G applied to the third electrode 230.

In an embodiment of the present invention, each end of the third electrode 230 embedded in the nanopore structure 100 may be exposed to the inside of the nanopore 105. Whereby the end of the third electrode 230 can be in direct physical contact with the flowing ionic fluid. However, the exposed portion of the third electrode 230 may be coated by a dielectric material.
