Abstract

Single-molecule detection technology is a technique capable of detecting molecules at the single-molecule level, characterized by high sensitivity, high resolution, and high specificity. Nanopore technology, as one of the single-molecule detection tools, is widely used to study the structure and function of biomolecules. In this study, we constructed a small-sized nanopore with a pore-cavity-pore structure, which can achieve a higher reverse capture rate. Through simulation, we investigated the electrical potential distribution of the nanopore with a pore-cavity-pore structure and analyzed the influence of pore size on the potential distribution. Accordingly, different pore sizes can be designed based on the radius of gyration of the target biomolecules, restricting their escape paths inside the chamber. In the future, nanopores with a pore-cavity-pore structure based on two-dimensional thin film materials are expected to be applied in single-molecule detection research, which provides new insights for various detection needs.
