Field-effect transistor (FET)-based ion or biosensors have been intensively studied so far. Among many measurement methods, the variation of the drain current can be induced when ions or biomolecules are interacted with sensing membranes located on the gate insulator of FET. One of typical FET-type sensors is an ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) utilized in this study. In ISFET, the voltage is usually applied to the reference electrode instead of the gate voltage. Firstly, the voltage applied to the reference electrode versus the drain current was observed, and the steepest slope in this graph was found. Using this point, the optimized condition was established for the larger variation of the drain current in the saturated region in response to the variation of the input in the dynamic range.

Atomically thin $MoS_2$ single crystals have a two-dimensional structure and exhibit semiconductor properties, and have therefore recently been utilized in electronic devices and circuits. In this study, we have fabricated a field effect transistor (FET), using a CVD-grown, 3 nm-thin, $MoS_2$ single-crystal as a transistor channel after transfer onto a $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. The $MoS_2$ FETs displayed n-channel characteristics with an electron mobility of $0.05cm^2/V-sec$, and a current on/off ratio of $I_{ON}/I_{OFF}{\simeq}5{\times}10^4$. Application of bottom-gate voltage stresses, however, increased the interface charges on $MoS_2/SiO_2$, incurred the threshold voltage change, and degraded the device performance in further measurements. Exposure of the channel to UV radiation further degraded the device properties.

Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) are of interest for use in widely area electronic applications. We fabricated a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) based field-effect transistor with different substrate temperature. The CuPc FET device was made a top-contact type and the substrate temperature was room temperature and $150^{\circ}C$. The CuPc thickness was 40nm, and the channel length was $50{\mu}m$, channel width was 3mm. We observed a typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics in CuPc FET.

Herein, we report the fabrication of low-voltage N-type organic field-effect transistors by using high capacitance fluorinated polymer gate dielectrics such as P(VDF-TrFE), P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE), and P(VDF-TrFE-CFE). Electron-withdrawing functional groups in PVDF-based polymers typically cause the depletion of negative charge carriers and a high contact resistance in N-channel organic semiconductors. Therefore, we incorporated intermediate layers of a low-k polymerto prevent the formation of a direct interface between PVDF-based gate insulators and the semiconducting active layer. Consequently, electron depletion is inhibited, and the high charge resistance between the semiconductor and source/drain electrodes is remarkably improved by the in corporation of solution-processed charge injection layers.

A prototype MFSFET using ferroelectric fluoride BaMgF$_4$as a gate insulator has been successfully fabricated with the help of 2 sheets of metal mask. The fluoride film was deposited in an ultrai-high vacuum system at a substrate temperature of below 30$0^{\circ}C$ and an in-situ post-deposition annealing was conducted for 20 seconds at $650^{\circ}C$ in the same chamber. The interface state density of the BaMgF$_4$/Si(100) interface calculated by a MFS capacitor fabricated on the same wafer was about 8$\times$10$^{10}$ /cm$^2$.eV. The I$_{D}$-V$_{G}$ characteristics of the MFSFET show a hysteresis loop due to the ferroelectric nature of the BaMgF$_4$film. It is also demonstrated that the I$_{D}$ can be controlled by the “write” plus which was applied before the measurements even at the same “read”gate voltage.ltage.

단일벽 탄소나노튜브(Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, SWCNTs)는 매우 우수한 전기적, 광전자적 특성을 가지고 있어 차세대 나노 전자소자 물질로 각광받고 있다. 특히, 이들의 전기적 특성은 직경과 카이랄리티(chirality)에 따라 금속성(metallic)과 반도체성(semiconducting)으로 구분된다. 각 특성에 따라 금속성은 투명전극, 반도체성은 전계효과 트랜지스터(CNT-FET)로 활용가능성이 높다. 하지만, 일반적으로 단일벽 탄소나노튜브는 이 두 가지의 특성이 혼재되어 합성되기 때문에, 그들의 선택적 분리는 나노튜브 기반 전자소자 응용을 위해 매우 중요한 과정 중 하나이다. 최근에는 반응 가스를 이용한 선택적 제거, 밀도차를 이용한 원심분리법(density gradient ultracentrifugation) 등 다양한 방법들이 보고된 바 있다. 본 연구는 대기 중에서 마이크로웨이브 조사하여 금속성 나노튜브만을 선택적으로 제거하였다. 마이크로웨이브 조사는 CVD 방법과 전기 방전법으로 성장된 단일벽 탄소나노튜브에 800W로 조사 시간을 변화하며 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 조사 시간이 증가할수록 두 종류의 나노튜브에서 반도체성 나노튜브는 남아있는 반면 금속성 나노튜브는 점차 제거되었다. 이러한 원인은 각 전기적 특성에 따른 유전상수 차이에 의하여 기인한 것이다. 전기적 특성과 결정성은 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)을 통하여 분석하였으며, 직경 및 분산정도는 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscope), 투과전자현미경(tunneling electron microscope)으로 관찰하였다.
