Abstract
An apparatus for a thin film device is used for analyzing a biopolymer. The apparatus has a thin film, a first solution in contact with a first surface of the thin film, a second solution in contact with a second surface of the thin film, a flow path or a conductive wire for adjusting the potential difference between the first solution and the second solution to a small value, a control unit for controlling the flow path or the conductive wire, an inlet from which a biopolymer is introduced to at least one of the first and second solution, a first electrode provided in the first solution, a second electrode provided in the second solution and an ammeter for measuring the current which flows between the first and second electrode when the biopolymer passes through a hole in the thin film between the first and second solution.
