Label-Free Direct Electrical Detection of a Histidine-Rich Protein with Sub-Femtomolar Sensitivity using an Organic Field-Effect Transistor.

ABSTRACT: The front cover artwork is provided by the group of Dr. Tsuyoshi Minami at the Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo (Japan). Easy-to-use sensing systems for on-site biomarker testing have been researched numerously, because conventional approaches for biomarker detection (e.g. enzyme linked-immunosorbent assays, etc.) are too complicated. In that regard, organic filed-effect transistors (OFETs) are some of the most promising platforms for construction of on-site testing systems. As OFETs can be easily fabricated on flexible substrates using wet processes, these are not only valuable transducers for chemo-/biosensors, but also the prospective device for rollable displays and low-cost radio frequency identification tags. Thus, the components of the sensing system could be integrated into a single chip by using OFET-based circuits. For more details, see the full text of the Communication at 10.1002/open.201700070.

Label-Free Direct Electrical Detection of a Histidine-Rich Protein with Sub-Femtomolar Sensitivity using an Organic Field-Effect Transistor.

Project description:There is a growing interest in achieving sensor systems to enable on-site testing of biomarkers. Herein, a new strategy for highly sensitive protein detection at sub-femtomolar levels without any labelling has been demonstrated by using an organic field-effect transistor (OFET). An artificial histidine-rich protein receptor (NiII-nitrilotriacetic acid complex, NiII-nta) functionalizes a detection portion (i.e. an extended-gate electrode) of the fabricated OFET device. The OFET responds electrically and selectively to a target analyte (bovine serum albumin), meaning that the binding processes at the NiII-nta on the extended-gate electrode for the analyte affect the field-effect properties of the device. Our results demonstrate that the combination of the OFET with the artificial receptor is an ideal approach for label-free and immune-free protein detection.

Microfluidic-based graphene field effect transistor for femtomolar detection of chlorpyrifos.

Project description:Chlorpyrifos is one of the most widely used pesticides that acts on the nervous system by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase. Prolonged use of chlorpyrifos causes severe neurological, autoimmune, and persistent developmental disorders in humans. Therefore, in this study, a highly sensitive and robust biosensor platform was devised by fabricating graphene field effect transistors (graFET) on Si/SiO2 substrate for the detection of chlorpyrifos in real samples. Anti-chlorpyrifos antibodies were immobilized successfully on the graphene surface. Under optimal conditions, graFET sensor showed an excellent response for chlorpyrifos detection in the linear range of 1 fM to 1 µM with a limit of detection up to 1.8 fM in spiked samples. The developed graFET biosensor is highly stable, sensitive, and specific for chlorpyrifos as confirmed by its significant ability to detect changes in electrostatic potential. These findings signify useful efficacy of immunobiosensors for the detection of chlorpyrifos and other organophosphates in fruits and vegetables.

Understanding and Mapping Sensitivity in MoS2 Field-Effect-Transistor-Based Sensors.

Project description:Sensors based on two-dimensional (2D) field-effect transistors (FETs) are extremely sensitive and can detect charged analytes with attomolar limits of detection (LOD). Despite some impressive LODs, the operating mechanisms and factors that determine the signal-to-noise ratio in 2D FET-based sensors remain poorly understood. These uncertainties, coupled with an expansive design space for sensor layout and analyte positioning, result in a field with many reported highlights but limited collective progress. Here, we provide insight into sensing mechanisms of 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) FETs by realizing precise control over the position and charge of an analyte using a customized atomic force microscope (AFM), with the AFM tip acting as an analyte. The sensitivity of the MoS2 FET channel is revealed to be nonuniform, manifesting sensitive hotspots with locations that are stable over time. When the charge of the analyte is varied, an asymmetry is observed in the device drain-current response, with analytes acting to turn the device off leading to a 2.5× increase in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We developed a numerical model, applicable to all FET-based charge-detection sensors, that confirms our experimental observation and suggests an underlying mechanism. Further, extensive characterization of a set of different MoS2 FETs under various analyte conditions, coupled with the numerical model, led to the identification of three distinct SNRs that peak with dependence on the layout and operating conditions used for a sensor. These findings reveal the important role of analyte position and coverage in determining the optimal operating bias conditions for maximal sensitivity in 2D FET-based sensors, which provides key insights for future sensor design and control.

Photoresponse Dimensionality of Organic Field-Effect Transistor.

Project description:Organic field-effect transistors have been envisioned for advanced photodetectors because the organic semiconductors provide unique absorption characteristics, low-cost fabrication, or compatibility with flexible substrates. However, the response time of organic phototransistors still does not reach the required application level. Here, we report the photoresponse of copper phthalocyanine phototransistor in a steady state and under pulsed illumination. The detailed analysis based on the random walk among a field of traps was used to evaluate the dimensionality of electron transport in a device.

A Label-Free Immunosensor for IgG Based on an Extended-Gate Type Organic Field Effect Transistor.

Project description:A novel biosensor for immunoglobulin G (IgG) detection based on an extended-gate type organic field effect transistor (OFET) has been developed that possesses an anti-IgG antibody on its extended-gate electrode and can be operated below 3 V. The titration results from the target IgG in the presence of a bovine serum albumin interferent, clearly exhibiting a negative shift in the OFET transfer curve with increasing IgG concentration. This is presumed to be due an interaction between target IgG and the immobilized anti-IgG antibody on the extended-gate electrode. As a result, a linear range from 0 to 10 µg/mL was achieved with a relatively low detection limit of 0.62 µg/mL (=4 nM). We believe that these results open up opportunities for applying extended-gate-type OFETs to immunosensing.

Field Effect Transistor Based on Layered NiPS 3.

Project description:Layered metal phosphochalcogenides of molecular formula, MPX3 (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, etc and X = S, Se) have been emerging as new class of semiconductors towards various catalytic and optoelectronic applications. The low cleavage energy associated with these layered chalcogenides may lead to devices with very thin semiconductor channels. Herein, we report the first successful fabrication of field effect transistor (FET) using layered NiPS3 that reveals n-type semiconducting behavior. Devices using bulk and few-layer NiPS3 with gold contacts show on/off ratios of ~103-105 at 25 °C. The device characteristics reveal an increase in on-state current with decrease in threshold voltage and the Schottky barrier height is extracted to be 112 meV. Density functional theory calculations reveal various parameters that affect electron/hole doping in the layered phosphochalcogenide material.

High-field modulated ion-selective field-effect-transistor (FET) sensors with sensitivity higher than the ideal Nernst sensitivity.

Project description:Lead ion selective membrane (Pb-ISM) coated AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMT) was used to demonstrate a whole new methodology for ion-selective FET sensors, which can create ultra-high sensitivity (-36?mV/log [Pb2+]) surpassing the limit of ideal sensitivity (-29.58?mV/log?[Pb2+]) in a typical Nernst equation for lead ion. The largely improved sensitivity has tremendously reduced the detection limit (10-10?M) for several orders of magnitude of lead ion concentration compared to typical ion-selective electrode (ISE) (10-7?M). The high sensitivity was obtained by creating a strong filed between the gate electrode and the HEMT channel. Systematical investigation was done by measuring different design of the sensor and gate bias, indicating ultra-high sensitivity and ultra-low detection limit obtained only in sufficiently strong field. Theoretical study in the sensitivity consistently agrees with the experimental finding and predicts the maximum and minimum sensitivity. The detection limit of our sensor is comparable to that of Inductively-Coupled-Plasma Mass Spectrum (ICP-MS), which also has detection limit near 10-10?M.

A steep switching WSe2 impact ionization field-effect transistor.

Project description:The Fermi-Dirac distribution of carriers and the drift-diffusion mode of transport represent two fundamental barriers towards the reduction of the subthreshold slope (SS) and the optimization of the energy consumption of field-effect transistors. In this study, we report the realization of steep-slope impact ionization field-effect transistors (I2FETs) based on a gate-controlled homogeneous WSe2 lateral junction. The devices showed average SS down to 2.73 mV/dec over three decades of source-drain current and an on/off ratio of ~106 at room temperature and low bias voltages (<1 V). We determined that the lucky-drift mechanism of carriers is valid in WSe2, allowing our I2FETs to have high impact ionization coefficients and low SS at room temperature. Moreover, we fabricated a logic inverter based on a WSe2 I2FET and a MoS2 FET, exhibiting an inverter gain of 73 and almost ideal noise margin for high- and low-logic states. Our results provide a promising approach for developing functional devices as front runners for energy-efficient electronic device technology.

High-mobility junction field-effect transistor via graphene/MoS2 heterointerface.

Project description:Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) possesses a desirable direct bandgap with moderate carrier mobility, whereas graphene (Gr) exhibits a zero bandgap and excellent carrier mobility. Numerous approaches have been suggested for concomitantly realizing high on/off current ratio and high carrier mobility in field-effect transistors, but little is known to date about the effect of two-dimensional layered materials. Herein, we propose a Gr/MoS2 heterojunction platform, i.e., junction field-effect transistor (JFET), that enhances the carrier mobility by a factor of ~ 10 (~ 100 cm2 V-1 s-1) compared to that of monolayer MoS2, while retaining a high on/off current ratio of ~ 108 at room temperature. The Fermi level of Gr can be tuned by the wide back-gate bias (VBG) to modulate the effective Schottky barrier height (SBH) at the Gr/MoS2 heterointerface from 528 meV (n-MoS2/p-Gr) to 116 meV (n-MoS2/n-Gr), consequently enhancing the carrier mobility. The double humps in the transconductance derivative profile clearly reveal the carrier transport mechanism of Gr/MoS2, where the barrier height is controlled by electrostatic doping.

ZrOx Negative Capacitance Field-Effect Transistor with Sub-60 Subthreshold Swing Behavior.

Project description:Here we report the ZrOx-based negative capacitance (NC) FETs with 45.06 mV/decade subthreshold swing (SS) under ± 1 V VGS range, which can achieve new opportunities in future voltage-scalable NCFET applications. The ferroelectric-like behavior of the Ge/ZrOx/TaN capacitors is proposed to be originated from the oxygen vacancy dipoles. The NC effect of the amorphous HfO2 and ZrOx films devices can be proved by the sudden drop of gate leakage, the negative differential resistance (NDR) phenomenon, the enhancement of IDS and sub-60 subthreshold swing. 5 nm ZrOx-based NCFETs achieve a clockwise hysteresis of 0.24 V, lower than 60 mV/decade SS and an 12% IDS enhancement compared to the control device without ZrOx. The suppressed NC effect of Al2O3/HfO2 NCFET compared with ZrOx NCFET is related to the partial switching of oxygen vacancy dipoles in the forward sweeping due to negative interfacial dipoles at the Al2O3/HfO2 interface.
