Abstract:
The performance of solid-state nanopore is affected by the noise level. This study aimed to investigate the effect of laser irradiation on the noise performance of solid-state nanoporein situ. Laser irradiation is applied to fresh and contaminated nanopores. The measurement results show that the noise of fresh and contaminated nanopores decreases with the laser power and there is a threshold of laser power in reducing the noise of contaminated nanopores. The possible reasons for reducing noise in the laser irradiation process are discussed. The laser treatment is proven to provide a convenient method for reducing the noise of solid-state nanopore.
