Abstract
Embodiments of the invention include sensors comprising AlGaAs/GaAs high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), inGaP/GaAs HEMTs. InAlAs/InGaAs HEMTs, AlGaAs/InGaAs PHEMTs, InAlAs/InGaAs PHEMTs, Sb based HEMTs, or InAs based HEMTs, the HEMTs having functionalization at a gate surface with target receptors. The target receptors allow sensitivity to targets (or substrates) for detecting breast cancer, prostate cancer, kidney injury, chloride, glucose, metals or pEI where a signal is generated by the HEMI when a solution is contacted with the sensor. The solution can be blood, saliva, urine, breath condensate, or any solution suspected of containing any specific analyte for the sensor.
