Abstract
A molecular sensor includes a substrate defining a substrate plane, and a plurality of pairs of electrode sheets above or below the substrate at an angle to the substrate plane. The molecular sensor further includes a plurality of inner dielectric sheets between each electrode sheet in each pair of electrode sheets of the plurality of pairs, and an outer dielectric sheet between each pair of electrode sheets of the plurality of pairs.

A structure usable in a molecular sensor device, comprising:
- a substrate defining a substrate plane;
- a plurality of pairs of electrode sheets above or below the substrate at an angle to the substrate plane;
- an inner dielectric sheet between each electrode sheet in each pair of electrode sheets, wherein each inner dielectric sheet comprises a groove on an exposed end portion of the inner dielectric sheet;
- and
- an outer dielectric sheet between each pair of electrode sheets,
- wherein each electrode sheet is at least 1,000 μm tall,
- wherein an aspect ratio of height to thickness of each electrode sheet is at least 10,000,
- wherein each inner dielectric sheet has a first thickness, and wherein each outer dielectric sheet has a second thickness at least one order of magnitude greater than the first thickness.
