Abstract

A CMOS electronic microarray device was used to carry out the rapid parallel assembly of functionalized nanoparticles into multilayer structures. Electronic microarrays produce reconfigurable DC electric fields that allow DNA, proteins as well as charged molecules to be rapidly transported from the bulk solution and addressed to specifically activated sites on the array surface. Such a device was used to carry out the assisted self-assembly DNA, biotin and streptavidin derivatized fluorescent nanoparticles into multilayer structures. Nanoparticle addressing could be carried out in about 15 seconds, and forty depositions of nanoparticles were completed in less than one hour. The final multilayered 3D nanostructures were verified by scanning electron microscopy.
