Disclosed are a sensor capable of detecting zinc oxide nanowires in water with high selectivity and sensitivity and a method for the detection of zinc oxide nanowires in water using the sensor. The sensor and method can provide powerful tools for analyzing the toxicity of zinc oxide nanowires to the environment and humans due to their ability to detect zinc oxide nanowires in water with high selectivity and sensitivity.

Provided is a nanoporous cantilever including a substrate in a shape of a plate, a tip formed at a front end of the substrate, and a nanoporous structure formed on the tip. Due to the nanoporous structure including nanopores and nanochannels formed on the tip, the nanoporous cantilever greatly increases in detection sensitivity for a material to be detected when compared to a cantilever according to a related art, and may obtain a surface-enhanced Raman signal and thus achieve discrimination of a molecule to be detected.
