Real-time electrical detection of the formation and destruction of lipid bilayers on silicon nanowire devices

Silicon nanowire (Si NW) two-terminal devices were fabricated to electrically probe the real-time formation and destruction of lipid bilayers. A liposome solution, containing the same ratio of zwitterionic/anionic lipids that are present in an Escherichia coli cell membrane, was applied to the NW de...
