Abstract: A method of sequencing a DNA sample is disclosed. A nanopore-based sequencing device is provided. The nanopore-based sequencing device includes a conductive layer. The device further includes a working electrode disposed above the conductive layer. The device further includes a side wall disposed above the working electrode, wherein the side wall and the working electrode form a well in which an electrolyte may be contained, and wherein at least an upper portion of the side wall comprises a hydrophobic portion formed by a fluoropolymer material. The DNA sample is sequenced using the nanopore-based sequencing device.
