Enhanced sensitivity of double gate junctionless transistor architecture for biosensing applications.

In the present work, we demonstrate the potential of double gate junctionless (JL) architecture for enhanced sensitivity for detecting biomolecules in cavity modulated field effect transistors (FETs). The higher values of body factor, achieved in asymmetric gate operation under impact ionization is utilized for enhanced sensing margin which is nearly five times higher than compared to symmetrical mode operation. The intrinsic detection sensitivity is evaluated in terms of threshold voltage change, and the ratio of drain current in the presence and absence of biomolecules in JL nanotransistors.
