Nanotube TFET Biosensor with High-Frequency FOMs as Sensing Parameter.

This paper proposes a new dielectrically modulated (DM) twin cavity nanotube biosensor and its sensitivity evaluation suitability by the transit time (τ) and device efficiency (g m / I ds ). In addition, the vertical structure of the device also helps the uniform spreading of biomolecules within the nanogap cavity region. The inner cavity of the proposed biosensor offers more space for the stabilization of biomolecules and uses the benefits of material solubility. In this paper, the sensing ability of the biosensor is examined in terms of τ and g m / I ds for five neutral biomolecules. Furthermore, the charged biomolecule and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are separately investigated for positive as well as negative charge densities. Also, various optimizations on the device are analyzed for different biomolecules in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
