Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss nanopore membranes developed for applications in the field of bio/nanotechnology. These nanopore membranes are suitable for template synthesis, bioseparations, and chemical and biochemical sensor development. We will briefly review the materials and methods of nanotube membrane technology and then discuss research and applications of these membranes with respect to template synthesis, separations, and sensing.
