Abstract

Non-invasive, charge-based sensing in chemoreceptive neuron MOS (CvMOS) transistors with extended floating-gate structure has brought forth features that are beneficial to the system integration of biological sensing. This paper presents the results of fast electrolytic signal detection on silicon dioxide, which advances possible technologies for rapid DNA discrimination or external monitoring of cell action potentials
