Abstract

In this research article, we have designed a junction-free electrostatically doped vertical tunnel field-effect transistor (JF-ED-VTEFT) for label-free biosensing applications. We incorporated a nano-cavity within the gate-oxide layer near the source end of the FET to enable the detection of biomolecules based on the principle of dielectric modulation and without the requirement of external labeling. The proposed biosensor is thoroughly analyzed, considering various aspects such as electric field, energy band, transfer characteristics, and sensitivity parameters including energy band diagram, ON-current, ION/IOFF ratio, electrical analysis, and surface potential characteristics. The investigation of sensitivity encompasses practical challenges, such as different filling factors and step-profiles resulting from steric hindrance. In addition, the performance of the biosensor is evaluated by analyzing the temperature and scaling fluctuation in the integrated nanocavities. Additionally, values of biomolecules that are close to standard have been taken to validate the performance and provide insight into the sensitivity of the biosensor for detecting and analyzing the molecules.
