Outline of Final Research Achievements

Due to nanoparticles passing through a narrow channel, pulse-like current changes are detected in electrolyte solutions, and the identification of viruses or DNA bases is possible by analyzing the time-series data. The practical ultra-fine process of transparent glass substrates and the micro-current measurement have been developed here. They achieved the simultaneous visualization with the current detection in the nanoparticle flow, and a significant reduction of Brownian noise by time synchronous averaging. A novel theoretical analysis of molecular flow considering electrophoresis, thermophoresis, thermal fluctuation, optical pressure, particle clustering and coarse-grained DNA model was successfully made. These results contributed to expanding the knowledge of negative thermophoresis and pseudo-tunneling currents, to establishing a new academic field called “Optothermal Nanofluidics,” and to the single-molecule identification based on the AI including a large deviation principle.
