IMEC has successfully demonstrated the full wafer-scale fabrication of nanopores using ASML’s state-of-the-art extreme ultraviolet (EUV) machines. Described by ASML’s communications chief as an “unexpectedly awesome biomedical application,” of his firm’s machinery, this could be an important advance due to the molecular sensing possibilities nanopores open up.
The qualities of nanopores are of great interest in biomedicine. As you might have determined from the etymology, nanopores are…
