Applications of nanopipettes in the analytical sciences

Abstract

In this review, we describe measurements and applications of interest to the analytical community that makes use of simple nanopipettes. Fabricated by applying heat during the separation of a glass capillary, nanopipettes provide a route for nanoscale studies of ion transport and for development of chemical and biochemical sensors. When mounted on a translation stage, nanopipettes also enable unique modes of imaging and material deposition. These facets of nanopipette research, as well as some of the unique properties of nanopipettes, will be discussed.
