Published: February 2016

A novel suspended planar-array chips technology is described, which effectively allows molecular multiplexing using a single suspended chip to analyze extraordinarily small volumes. The suspended chips are fabricated by combining silicon-based technology and polymer-pen lithography, obtaining increased molecular pattern flexibility, and improving miniaturization and parallel production. The chip miniaturization is so dramatic that it permits the intracellular analysis of living cells.

Article Synopsis
  • Air suspension and alignment are crucial for utilizing nanowire properties, but achieving this is difficult due to their mechanical instability.
  • The study introduces a stable air-suspended nanowire array called “nanolene,” featuring a C-channel-shaped cross-section that enhances stability and allows for large-area uniformity.
  • This innovative design enables the creation of long, aligned nanowire arrays and is applied in energy-efficient sensors, like a gas sensor that operates under 10 mW, making it suitable for mobile devices and advancing nanowire technology.
