Biochemical sensor

A semiconducting component with a Schottky junction with stacked electrodes has a lower electrode forming an emitter or source, a central electrode forming a base or grid and an upper electrode forming either a collector or a drain. Semiconductor material is between the upper electrode and the lower electrode. The central control electrode is in the form of several adjacent conducting fingers. An insulating material is in the region directly below the fingers between the control electrode and the lower electrode, thereby reducing parasitic capacitance between the control electrode and the lower electrode.
