Abstract: Fluidic nanotube devices are described in which a hydrophilic, non-carbon nanotube, has its ends fluidly coupled to reservoirs. Source and drain contacts are connected to opposing ends of the nanotube, or within each reservoir near the opening of the nanotube. The passage of molecular species can be sensed by measuring current flow (source-drain, ionic, or combination). The tube interior can be functionalized by joining binding molecules so that different molecular species can be sensed by detecting current changes. The nanotube may be a semiconductor, wherein a tubular transistor is formed. A gate electrode can be attached between source and drain to control current flow and ionic flow. By way of example an electrophoretic array embodiment is described, integrating MEMs switches.

Abstract: Vertical integrated field effect transistor circuits and methods are described which are fabricated from Silicon, Germanium, or a combination Silicon and Germanium based on nanowires grown in place on the substrate. By way of example, vertical integrated transistors are formed from one or more nanowires which have been insulated, had a gate deposited thereon, and to which a drain is coupled to the exposed tips of one or more of the nanowires. The nanowires are preferably grown over a surface or according to a desired pattern in response to dispersing metal nanoclusters over the desired portions of the substrate. In one preferred implementation, SiCl4 is utilized as a gas phase precursor during the nanowire growth process. In place nanowire growth is also taught in conjunction with structures, such as trenches, while bridging forms of nanowires are also described.

Abstract: Novel and significantly simplified procedures for fabrication of fully integrated nanoelectrospray emitters have been described. For nanofabricated monolithic multinozzle emitters (NM2 emitters), a bottom up approach using silicon nanowires on a silicon sliver is used. For microfabricated monolithic multinozzle emitters (M3 emitters), a top down approach using MEMS techniques on silicon wafers is used. The emitters have performance comparable to that of commercially-available silica capillary emitters for nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry.
