Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a biosensing integrated circuit (IC). A non-limiting example of the biosensing IC includes a plurality of semiconductor substrate layers. A sensor element is formed over a first one of the plurality of semiconductor substrate layers, wherein the sensor element is configured to, based at least in part on the sensor element interacting with a predetermined material, generate data representing a measureable electrical parameter. An adhesion enhancement region is configured to physically couple the sensor element to the first one of the plurality of semiconductor substrate layers. In some embodiments of the invention, the biosensing IC further includes an electrically conductive interconnect network configured to communicatively couple the data representing the measureable electrical parameter to computer elements.
