(Keynote Talk) Fabrication, Characterization, and Modeling of Field-Effect-Transistor Nanoribbon Biosensors

Abstract

A review of the fabrication, characterization and modeling of silicon-on-insulator field-effect-transistor nanoribbon chemical and biological sensors is presented. The impact of mobile ions on the sensor electrical response is shown to depend strongly on the nature of the sensor surface. Appropriate bias conditions for these sensors and a model which predicts sensor operation is described.
