Abstract
An apparatus includes a biosensor integrated circuit (IC) chip with sensing zones and/or well structures configured to receive a liquid with biological analytes. The chip includes a passivation layer with an opening over a channel layer and an array of graphene field effect transistors (gFETs) individually having a 2D graphene channel disposed on a dielectric oxide layer, a conductive drain, and a conductive source. A liquid gate is formed above the top surface of the graphene channel. The chip further includes reference electrodes formed in a metal layer, configured to contact the liquid, and disposed at a horizontal distance apart from the graphene channels. The individual gFETs are operable to enable a set of measurements to sense parameters of the biological analytes based on changes in a shape of Id-Vgs transconductance curves. A system and a method have similar structures and perform the functions of the apparatus.
