Detecting the concentration of Pb<sup>2+</sup> ions is important for monitoring the quality of water due to it can become a health threat as being in certain level. In this study, we report a nanomechanical Pb<sup>2+</sup> sensor by employing the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor microelectromechanical system (CMOS MEMS)-based piezoresistive microcantilevers coated with PEDOT:PSS sensing layers. Upon reaction with Pb<sup>2+</sup>, the PEDOT:PSS layer was oxidized which induced the surface ...[more]
