The code for the human genome is essentially complete, opening an expansive book about our biologic composition. But the problem is to read this book. The font size is very small, What you are reading now is 9 point font, and genetic information would correspond to approximately 10-50 point font, six orders of magnitude smaller. There are methods to derive genetic information, but recently Adam Woolley, Chantal Guillemette, Chin-Li Cheung, David Housman, and Charles Lieber have developed an elegant way to directly read genetic information with a microscope. The microscope they used was an atomic force microscope (AFM) that employed a single-walled carbon nanotube as its probe.

Using metal-coated atomic force microscope (AFM) tips and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) BuckyPaper films, the authors have successfully explored the feasibility of electro-machining (EM) at the nanometer scale. Highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and thin metal films were used as a substrate (workpiece) and metal-coated (Cr/Au) Si AFM tips and BuckyPaper films were used as electrodes. A negative voltage pulse was applied to the AFM tip to fabricate holes as small as 30 nm in diameter on the HOPG surface. Using SWNT BuckyPaper films, the submicron holes were fabricated on a metal surface, demonstrating that SWNTs can work as electrodes.
