Topical Review: Design, Fabrication, and Applications of Hybrid Nanostructured Array

Abstract

Nanohybrid materials have been widely used in the material chemistry research areas. In this paper, we mainly discussed the hybrid nanostructures used for nanobiosensor applications. It is one of the most promising and rapidly emerging research areas in nanotechnology field. Design, fabrication, and applications of hybrid nanostructures are reviewed, respectively. Finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods are applied to design different materials of hybrid nanostructures. Nanosphere lithography (NSL) is used to fabricate our designed hybrid nanostructures. Moreover, protein A and staphylococcal enterotoixn B (SEB), an enterotoxin, are detected by our designed hybrid nanostructures. From all the experiment results, we can see that our designed hybrid nanostructures are one of important nanohybrid materials. They have many potential applications in the nanobiosensor in the future.
