Abstract

Methods, devices, substrates, and systems are disclosed involving arrays of zero-mode waveguides having nanopores extending through the bases that form the bottoms of the zero-mode-waveguides. Electric fields across the nanopores are used to attach single biomolecules such as polymerase enzymes within each zero-mode-waveguide. Electric fields across the nanopores can also be used for the active loading of nucleic acid templates into enzymes attached within the zero mode waveguides.
