Abstract :
Affinity biosensor use bio-recognition element and transducers to convert the (bio)chemical event into a recordable signal. CMOS compatible silicon nanowires configured as field effect transistor (Si NW-FETs) have shown significant advantages for real-time, label-free and highly sensitive detection of a wide range of biomolecules. Here we discuss the physics, limitations, and applications for nanowire FETs sensor technologies.
