Abstract:
An unprecedented high sensitive sensing of neurotransmitter dopamine at fM level was demonstrated using a poly-crystalline silicon nanowire field-effect transistor (poly-SiNW FET) fabricated by employing a simple and low-cost poly-Si sidewall spacer technique, which was compatible with current commercial semiconductor processes for large-scale standard manufacture.
