Abstract
Improved sensing performance, larger pH sensitivity that breaches the Nernst response limit with excellent stability, was realized on polycrystalline silicon based dual-gate (DG) ion-sensitive field-effect transistors. The capacitive coupling between the top and bottom gate oxides for a DG operation amplified its sensitivity to as high as 325.8 mV/pH. In particular, the SiO2/HfO2/Al2O3 (OHA) layer, proposed as an engineered sensing membrane, significantly reinforced the sensing margin of devices as well as the chemical stability for long-term use. The sensing characteristics of the OHA and conventional SiO2 layer were evaluated for single gate and DG operation modes, respectively.
