This study investigates the effects of channel length (L) scaling on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of FET-type gas sensors with a horizontal floating-gate. It is found that SNR is proportional to the square root of the channel length (L) of the FET transducer. The low-frequency noise characteristics of the FET-type gas sensor can be explained by the carrier number fluctuation model with correlated mobility fluctuation, providing important guidelines for designing sensor platforms in FET-type gas sensors.
We investigate the channel length (L) scaling effects on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the field-effect-transistor (FET)-type gas sensor with a horizontal floating-gate. A sensing layer, 15 nm of indium-gallium-zinc-oxide thin film, is deposited by the radio frequency sputtering method. Nitrogen dioxide is used as a target gas. The low-frequency noise characteristics of the FET-type gas sensor are explained by the carrier number fluctuation model with correlated mobility fluctuation. The SNR is proportional to the square root of the Lof the FET transducer. The result provides important guidelines in designing the sensor platform in FET-type gas sensors.
