For the past decade, new research fields utilizing microfluidics
have been formed. General micro-integration methods were proposed,
and the supporting fundamental technologies were widely developed.
These methodologies have made various applications in the fields of
analytical and chemical synthesis, and their superior performances
such as rapid, simple, and high efficient processing have been
proved. Recently, the space is further downscaling to 101-103nm
scale (we call the space extended-nano space). The extended-nano
space located between the conventional nanotechnology (100-101nm)
and microtechnology (>1 m), and the research tools are not well
established. In addition, the extended-nano space is a transient
space from single molecules to bulk condensed phase, and fluidics
and chemistry are not unknown. For these purposes, basic
methodologies were developed, and new specific phenomena in
fluidics and chemistry were found. These new phenomena were applied
to unique chemical operations such as concentration and ion
selection. The new research fields which are now being created are
quite different from those in microspace. Unique devices are also
increasingly being reported. In this book, we describe the
fundamental technologies for extended-nano space and show the
unique liquid properties found in this space and applications for
single molecule or cell analysis.The research area is very new and
hence, exciting. In contrast to other specialized areas, the
research fields require wide knowledge (chemistry, fluidics,
mechanics, photonics, biology etc.) and state-of-the-art
technologies (bottom-up and top-down fabrication for various hard
and soft materials, precise fluidic control, single molecule
detection methods, and particle surface modification methods etc.),
which have not been not covered by conventional review papers or
books. Therefore, researchers or students new to the field need a
new book covering these fields including recent research topics,
applications and problems to be solved in the future. Our
motivation is to summarize the state-of-the-art technologies for
research and demonstrate new chemistry and fluidics in
extended-nano space for students and researchers in academia or
industry. We also emphasize the potential large impact microfluidic
technologies have on chemistry and biochemistry.
