Problems solved by technology

First, the mechanical stability of 2D material films is poor
The two-dimensional material film with sub-nanometer thickness is prone to mechanical vibration in the electrolyte solution, and the vibration noise generated will make the weak signal generated by the ionic current submerged in the noise and cannot be recognized; second, two-dimensional materials such as graphene are transferred to its support. Defects will be generated in the substrate process, and the leakage current generated by the defects is also considered to be one of the reasons for the low signal-to-noise ratio of the current signal detected by the nanopores of two-dimensional materials.
Third, compared with traditional silicon-based nanopores, although the atomic-level channel length of two-dimensional material nanopores can improve the spatial resolution of current signals, it also allows DNA molecules to maintain a greater degree of freedom when passing through the pores. This leads to an unstable molecular configuration and reduces the signal-to-noise ratio
[0004] Most of the existing nanotube biosensors based on the nanopore detection principle integrate nanotubes into silicon-based nanopores (CN103796947B) or use radial slices of nanotubes to form nanopores (CN 1994864B), but the nanotubes formed by these methods hole, there are still problems of low spatial resolution and low signal-to-noise ratio

Abstract

The invention discloses a nano-pore detection system based on a nano-tube and a preparation method and application thereof. The system comprises a nano-pore structure based on the nano-tube, a micro-channel structure, a cover plate for sealing the micro-channel structure, and a current detection system for detecting a to-be-detected object.
