Figure 1

The schematic structure of our proposed DNA sequencing method based on the excitation-dependent emission property of GO or MoS2 nanopore while DNA molecule passes through the nanopore. The structure is assumed to be suspended in a polar solvent such as water. Regarding the excitation wavelength dependent behavior of GO and MoS2 materials, the emission wavelength λout would be a function of the incident light wavelength λin. The blue, green, red and cyan colors represent the emission wavelength of the GO or MoS2, corresponding to the presented A, T, C and G nucleobases at the nanopore. The function (f ) is determined by the type of the DNA nucleobases.
