โœฆ Synopsis


A double-gate (DG) fin field effect transistor (FinFET) is discussed as new label-free ion and biological sensor. Simulations as function of channel doping, geometrical dimensions, operation point and materials investigated the device response to an external potential difference which provides a body threshold voltage modulation. The simulation results presented in this work clearly state the key features for an ultrasensitive FET based sensor: an enhancement low doped and partially gated transistor operating in weak-moderate inversion regime. The optimized sensitivity, obtained when the width of the fin is equal to the gate height (w NW $ h g ), reaches a value of 85% for an extraction current, I d , of 0.1 lA. These results pave the way for the fabrication process of an innovative CMOS compatible sensing system.

The sensitivity of varistor types of gas detector may be severely restricted by conventional techniques of deriving the system input signal from a voltage change arising from a dual-arm potential divider. A much more effective means of analogue signal processing for high sensitivity can be achieved
