High Gain and Fast Detection of Warfare Agents Using Back-Gated Silicon-Nanowired MOSFETs

Abstract: International audience—The top-down fabrication of doped p-type silicon-nanowired (NW) arrays and their application as gas detectors is presented. After surface functionalization with 3-(4-ethynyl-benzyl)-1, 5, 7-trimethyl-3-azabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane-7-methanol molecules, the wires were subjected to an organophosphorous simulant, and both static and dynamic measurements were performed. A current gain of 4 × 10 6 is obtained upon the detection of the subpart-per-million concentration of a nerve-agent simu-lant.… Show more

“…In a very brief conference proceeding without any sensing data, Lee and co-workers report on the electrical detection of the vapor of DMMP in N 2 using a device with bare SiNWs in a resistor mode [ 57 ]. More interestingly, Simonato and Raskin and co-workers reported a highly sensitive detection of DPCP ( Figure 10a , top) using chemically functionalized silicon nanoribbon FETs [ 54 ] and silicon nanowire FETs [ 59 , 58 ], respectively. In their work, the silicon nanostructures were fabricated and then functionalized by covalent grafting through thermal hydrosilylation of compound 1 onto the HF pre-treated substrates.…”

“…Moreover, our results shows that DPCP can be distinguish among other related compounds, in complex mixtures or on contaminated materials. We have now developed more sensitive devices [18] that will be integrated in the same prototype, which should lead to a further increase in performances. To our knowledge, this approach represents the first fully integrated portable device for the detection of Sarin-like molecules based on nanotechnologies.…”

“…Silicon nanowire-based field-effect transistors (NW-FETs) are well studied structures [8][9][10][11][12] that give rise to powerful sensors for the detection of chemical species in air [13][14][15][16]. For NW sensors operated as FETs, the sensing mechanism is the field-gating effect of charged molecules on the carrier conduction inside the NW [17,18].…”

“…It is also used in SOI CMOS ICs with dynamically adjustable threshold voltage ("back-gatecontrolled schemes") [140,141]. Moreover, the effect of the interface coupling has a wide use in SOI-based chemical and biological sensors [142][143][144].…”
