This study demonstrates a copper ion sensor based on Al0.18Ga0.82N/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) with L-cysteine functionalization. The sensor shows a high sensitivity of 82.22 mu A/(mg/L) and a detection limit of 0.01 mg/L, making it a promising approach for efficient and fast detection of Cu2+.
We demonstrate an Al0.18Ga0.82N/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT)-based copper ion (Cu2+) sensor with L-cysteine functionalization. The sensing response of the sensor was analyzed by measuring the change in drain current of the HEMT after employing Cu2+ ions of different concentrations in the range of 0-20 mg/L forming complexes with L-cysteine. The Al0.18Ga0.82N/GaN HEMT sensor exhibits high response with a sensitivity of 82.22 mu A/(mg/L) and a detection limit of 0.01 mg/L. As a result, the Al0.18Ga0.82N/GaN HEMT sensor functionalized with L-cysteine provides a promising approach for efficient, fast, and convenient detection of Cu2+.
