Functionalization of Si‐Based NW FETs for DNA Detection

Picomolar detection of carbohydrate-lectin interactions on piezoelectrically printed microcantilever array

“…To address this, silane self-assembled monolayers (SAM) have been shown to generate inorganic/organic heterointerfaces suitable for biomolecule immobilization and LFD performance. [15][16][17][18][19][20] Here, alkoxy groups from organosilane molecules easily form SAMs on surfaces terminated with hydroxyl groups. 21 This can be easily achieved through oxygen (O2) plasma cleaning on semiconductor surfaces such as gold (Au) 22 , silicon (Si) 23 and silicon carbide (SiC).…”
