Nanopore detection advances: Combining pressure and electric fields to identify elusive molecules
Researchers have improved the sensitivity of solid-state sensors by combining physical pressure and electric fields to push low-charge particles through microscopic gaps. This dual-force method succeeds where traditional voltage-only techniques fail, offering a more reliable way to identify complex biological molecules.
