Silicon Nanowire Field-Effect Transistor as Label-Free Detection of Hepatitis B Virus Proteins with Opposite Net Charges

Suh Kuan Yong et al.

Summary: In this study, silicon nanowire field-effect transistors (pSiNWFETs) were fabricated through commercial process technology and chemically functionalized for sensing hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) and hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) at the femto-molar level. The proteins' opposite net charges could suggest a complementary charge-based sensing mechanism in the pSiNWFET. The consistent correspondence between the threshold voltage shifts of pSiNWFETs and the polarity of the charges on the proteins studied indicates the potential for developing an accessible tool for biomedical applications.
