    摘要: Methods for detecting the presence of an analyte in a sample are provided. Aspects of the methods include mixing a sample with an indirectly-detectable labeled binding member that includes a label moiety. The mixing produces a first composition. Unbound labeled binding member is then separated from any resultant binding complexes to produce a second composition that includes the binding complexes. A second light emitted by a light wavelength converter that is excited by a first light generated by the labeled binding member of the binding complexes of the second composition is then detected to detect the presence of the analyte in the sample. Embodiments also include kits and systems that find use in practicing the subject methods.

    摘要: A method of fabricating nanosized holes with controlled geometries employs tools and methods developed in the microelectronics industry. The method exploits the fact that epitaxially grown film thicknesses can be controlled within a few atomic monolayers and that by using etching techniques, trenches and channels can be created that are only a few nanometers wide. The method involves bonding two shallow channels at an angle such that a nanopore is defined by the intersection. Thus, a nanopore-defining device includes a nanopore with dimensions that are determined by the dimensions and orientations of the intersecting channels, with the dimensions being accurately controlled within a few monolayers.

    摘要: An adjustable nanopore is fabricated by placing the surfaces of two planar substrates in contact, wherein each substrate contains a hole having sharp corners and edges. A corner is brought into proximity with an edge to define a triangular aperture of variable area. Ionic current in a liquid solution and through the aperture is monitored as the area of the aperture is adjusted by moving one planar substrate with respect to the other along two directional axes and a rotational axis. Piezoelectric positioners can provide subnanometer repeatability in the adjustment process. The invention is useful for characterizing, cleaving, and capturing molecules, molecular complexes, and supramolecular complexes which pass through the nanopore, and provides an improvement over previous devices in which the hole size of nanopores fabricated by etching and/or redeposition is fixed after fabrication.

    摘要: A display device and a method for fabricating the display device. A display device according to the present invention is fabricated from an electrode layer that includes a plurality of electrodes on a substrate. The electrode layer is immersed in a solution of a first precursor polymer in a first solvent. The first precursor polymer includes a plurality of electrochemical polymerizable monomers. Each monomer has first and second polymer-forming active sites that can be joined by electrochemical polymerization and third and fourth polymer-forming active sites that can be joined chemically in solution. The first precursor polymer is soluble in the first solvent whereas a first polymer formed by electrochemical polymerization of the first and second polymer-forming active sites is insoluble in the first solvent. A layer of the first polymer is deposited on the a first one of the electrodes by connecting that electrode to an electric circuit while leaving the others of the electrodes disconnected from the circuit. The electrode is then immersed in a solution of said first precursor polymer. The circuit applies a potential to the electrode sufficient to cause the first and second polymer active sites to polymerize by electrochemical polymerization thereby depositing a first polymer layer includes the first polymer precursor on the first one of the electrodes. A second electrode layer is then deposited over the first polymer layer. In multi-color displays, the different polymer layers corresponding to the various colors are deposited on different ones of the electrodes by sequentially depositing each polymer layer in a similar manner.

    摘要: In the method of the present invention, a bottom electrode having a planar sheet of conducting material is first deposited on a substrate. A mask is then deposited on the bottom electrode to define wells. For at least first and second ones of the wells defined by the mask, an electroluminescent material is dispensed into the wells. The electroluminescent material dispensed into the first well emits a different spectrum of light from the electroluminescent material dispensed into the second well. In one embodiment of the invention, an isolation layer is deposited over the electroluminescent material after the electroluminescent material has dried. A top electrode is then deposited over the isolation layer. In a display according to the present invention, a plurality of pixels are deposited on a bottom electrode and then a top electrode is provided for energizing the pixels. The plurality of pixels includes first and second pixels, the first pixel having a first mixture of at least two electroluminescent dyes and the second pixel having a second mixture of the electroluminescent dyes. The first mixture differs in the ratios of the electroluminescent dyes from the second mixture.
