Sensitivity

  • At least ~ pM, grateful if it can go lower.
  • Protein detection limit of SWNT-FET: >10 nM

(c.f. Lieber group: ~ 10 fM detection limit of proteins using SiNW devices-Nat. Biotechol. 2005, 23, 1294.)

Feasibility

  • Prompt use: currently too long stabilization time
  • Nonspecific binding: perfect protection of devices with efficient

chemical blocking is mandatory. Hurdles to overcome

Nanotube aspects: Charge injection from biomolecules Electric double layer field modulation caused by biomolecules Metal-nanotube contact aspect: Adsorbed chemical species may modulate work function level of contact metals, which consequently change the Schottky barrier height resulting in the conductance change.
