Stencil-Based Selective Surface Functionalization of Silicon Nanowires in 3D Device Architectures for Next-Generation Biochemical Sensors

Yusuf Leblebici, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani, Ece Öztürk

Surface functionalization of 1D materials such as silicon nanowires is a critical preparation technology for biochemical sensing. However, existing nonselective functionalization techniques result in nonlocal binding and contamination, with potential devic ...

Controlling DNA nanodevices with light-switchable buffers

Cristian Pezzato, Cesare Berton, Valentin Jean Périllat

Control over synthetic DNA-based nanodevices can be achieved with a variety of physical and chemical stimuli. Actuation with light, however, is as advantageous as difficult to implement without modifying DNA strands with photo-switchable groups. Herein, we ...

Selective area epitaxy of GaAs: the unintuitive role of feature size and pitch

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Lucas Güniat, Didem Dede, Valerio Piazza, Elif Nur Dayi, Martin George Friedl, Vladimir Dubrovskii, Nicholas Paul Morgan, Akshay Balgarkashi

Selective area epitaxy (SAE) provides the path for scalable fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures in a device-compatible configuration. In the current paradigm, SAE is understood as localized epitaxy, and is modelled by combining planar and self-asse ...
