Roswell Biotechnology, San Diego, CA metal are exposed by etching away a sacrificial 23µm×15µm “bond pad” to expose a common staging area for the electrodes of 4 adjacent pixels. The 50nm wide electrodes are patterned, then fabricated using a sputtering and liftoff process. A second sputtering step caps the vias and covers part of the wire with oxide to minimize current leakage into the electrolyte. For conventional photolithography, the wafers are pulled before passivation with individual top metal pads exposed for each electrode. Vias and passivation are subsequently added. The nanoelectrodes are patterned with 193nm immersion lithography, and gap narrowing techniques reduce the gap from ~150nm to ~20nm. The electrodes are passivated with a 100nm oxide to minimize the leakage current. Molecular electronics is the concept of integrating single molecules into circuits as functional elements. For nearly 50 years, this has been envisioned as a way to extend
