Nano-biosensors that are composed of recognition molecules and nanomaterials have been extensively utilized in disease diagnosis, health management, and environmental monitoring. As a type of nano-biosensors, molecular specificity field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors with signal amplification capability exhibit prominent advantages including fast response speed, ease of miniaturization, and integration, promising their high sensitivity for molecules detection and identification. With intrinsic characteristics of high stability and structural tunability, aptamer has become one of the most commonly applied biological recognition units in the FET sensing fields. This review summarizes the recent progress of FET biosensors based on aptamer functionalized nanomaterials in medical diagnosis and environmental monitoring. The structure, sensing principles, preparation methods, and functionalization strategies of aptamer modified FET biosensors were comprehensively summarized. The relationship between structure and sensing performance of FET biosensors was reviewed. Furthermore, the challenges and future perspectives of FET biosensors were also discussed, so as to provide support for the future development of efficient healthcare management and environmental monitoring devices.

Nanoparticles have become widely used materials in various fields, yet their mechanism of action at the cellular level after entering the human body remains unclear. Accurately observing the effect of nanosize dimensions on particle internalization and toxicity in cells is crucial, particularly under the conditions of biological activity. With the aim of helping to study the interactions between nanoparticles of varying sizes and active cell membranes, we propose a flexible biosensor system based on a field effect transistor (FET).

Stable and low-cost field-effect transistor (FET)-based biosensors are vital for the on-site detection of toxic pollutants in environmental monitoring applications. In this study, a tunable aptamer-MXene sensing interface was constructed to develop renewable FET biosensors. This was achieved through the reversible disulfide bond (-S-S-) reaction between the SH-TiCT film and thiolated aptamer.

In this paper, a new label-free DNA nanosensor based on a top-gated (TG) metal-ferroelectric-metal (MFM) graphene nanoribbon field-effect transistor (TG-MFM GNRFET) is proposed through a simulation approach. The DNA sensing principle is founded on the dielectric modulation concept. The computational method employed to evaluate the proposed nanobiosensor relies on the coupled solutions of a rigorous quantum simulation with the Landau-Khalatnikov equation, considering ballistic transport conditions.

This study explores a quick, low-cost method to detect Alzheimer's disease (AD) by evaluating the accomplishment of a Gate-Stack (GS) Field Effect Transistor (FET). We investigate Single-Metal (SM), Dual-Metal (DM), and Tri-Metal Double Gate (DG) configurations, where cavities have been created by etching the oxide layer underneath the gate to immobilize grey matter samples collected through Solid-phase microextraction (SPME). Healthy and AD-affected grey matter have different dielectric characteristics at high frequencies.
