Abstract
Described herein is a sensor comprising a doped silicon layer, a graphene layer on the doped silicon layer, a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) layer on the graphene layer, and electrodes in operative arrangement with the MIP layer and configured to provide a signal indicative of resistance. The MIP layer is derived from a MIP monomer and functional monomer. Also described herein is a detector comprising a sensor described herein as well as methods of making and using the sensors and detectors, e.g., to detect an analyte, such as a virus.
