Device model of silicon nanowire bioFETs
نویسنده
چکیده
A device model of biological molecule sensors based on semiconductor nanowires has been developed. This model of a bioFET is based on the concept of the electrolytic absolute electrode potential. From that starting point a semiconductor device model of the nanowire solution biomolecule system was derived. The model includes the Gouy-Chapman-Stern model of the salt solution double layer, site binding charges on the electrode surface, and biological molecules in the form of a membrane layer. A simple method of solving this model is presented using the finite element method. Some examples showing the general properties of the model are given.

Silicon nanowire (Si NW)-based field effect transistors (FETs) have shown great potential as biosensors (bioFETs) for ultra-sensitive and label-free detection of biomolecular interactions. Their sensitivity depends not only on the device properties, but also on the function of the biological recognition motif attached to the Si NWs. In this study, we show that SiNWs can be chemically functional...
