We fabricated the electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) devices with various high-k sensing membranes to realize a high quality pH sensor. The sensing properties of each high-k dielectric material were compared with those of conventional $SiO_2$ (O) and $SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ (ON) membranes. As a result, the high-k sensing membranes demonstrated better sensitivity and stability than the O and ON membranes. Especially, the $SiO_2/HfO_2$ (OH) stacked layer showed a high sensitivity and the $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ (OA) stacked layer exhibited an excellent chemical stability. In conclusion, the high-k sensing membranes are expected to have excellent operating characteristics in terms of sensitivity and chemical stability for the biosensor application.
