General description
Silicon nitride based ceramics possess high fracture toughness, hardness and wear resistance, resistance to corrosion, thermal stability. Two known polymorphs of silicon nitride exist, alpha and beta Si3N4, both have hexagonal structure. A study shows that a third state, cubic spinel structure, has also been synthesized.

Millimeter sized arrays of uniformly-distributed nanopores (180-220 nm) were created in thin (200 nm) silicon nitride membranes using interferometric lithography. Molecular transport properties of the fabricated devices were investigated experimentally and compared with those of state-of-the-art polycarbonate track etched membranes.

One of the primary advantages of nanoscale sensors is that they often can provide conceptually new ways of performing sensing that are not feasible with their large-scale analogs. For example, the small size of nanoscale sensor elements, such as plasmonic
