Abstract:
The original version of this Article omitted the author Kuan Wang, who is from the 'College of Biomedical Engineering, Taipei Medical University, Taipei 11031, Taiwan' and 'Nanyang Environment & Water Research Institute, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore 637141, Singapore.'Also, the author S.H. Lim was incorrectly given as L.S. Hoi and A. Larsson was incorrectly given as A. Larson.The "Author contributions" was amended to reflect the authorship changes. It previously read 'Y.Z.S., C.-W.Q., and A.Q.L. jointly conceived the idea. Y.Z.S., S.X., Y.Z., J.B.Z., W.S., J.H.W., T.N.C., Z.C.Y., Y.L.H., B.L., P.H.Y., D.P.T., and C.-W.Q. performed the numerical simulations and theoretical analysis. Y.Z.S., S.X., and L.K.C. did the fabrication and experiments of particle hopping, biomolecule binding and flow cytometry. A.L. and L.S.H. did the SPR experiments. S.X., Y.Z.S., Y.Z., C.-W.Q., Y.-Y.C., L.K.C., T.H.Z., and A.Q.L. prepared the manuscript. S.X., Y.Z., C.-W.Q., and A.Q.L. supervised and coordinated all the work. All authors commented on the manuscript.' The correct version states 'B.L., K. W., P.H.Y.' instead of 'B.L., P.H.Y.' and 'S.H.L.' in place of 'L.S.H.'This has been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.

Fermi Level Dynamics
Electron affinity in semiconductors refers to the energy gap between the minimum of its conduction band and the vacuum level and it is a critical parameter in determining how easily a semiconductor can accept additional electrons.

Ratio Level of Measurement
A set of data measured using the ratio scale takes care of the ratio problem and provides complete information. Ratio scale data are like interval scale data, except they have a zero point and ratios can be calculated....
Ordinal Level of Measurement
Data measured using an ordinal scale are similar to nominal scale data, but there is one major difference. The ordinal scale data can be ordered. An example of ordinal scale data is a list of the top five national parks...
Interval Level of Measurement
Data measured using the interval scale are similar to ordinal level data because they have a definite arrangement. However, in the interval level of measurement, the differences between data values are meaningful even though the data does not have a starting point.
Temperature is measured using the interval scale. It is measurable data, and the difference between...
Nominal Level of Measurement
The data that cannot be measured but can be grouped into categories fall under the nominal level of measurement. Data that is measured using a nominal...
