The authors study deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sensing characteristics of carbon nanotube network field-effect transistors (CNNFETs) by monitoring their electrical responses upon immobilization with a DNA probe, hybridization with DNA analytes, and intercalation with a N,N-'-bis(3-propylimidazole)-1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide modified with Os(2,2(')-bipyridine)(2)Cl+ pendants. The CNNFETs immobilized by single-stranded DNA molecules demonstrate the selective sensing of its complementary and single-base mismatched DNA (difference of similar to 16% in reduction of normalized drain current I-d). Subsequent intercalation demonstrates a further sensitivity enhancement (difference of similar to 13% in I-d reduction) due to specific binding between hybridized DNA and intercalators, corroborated by the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study.
