applications in the area of homeland security, medical..etc
o Energy transduction principles have been employed for chemical
and biologica lsensing based either on optical ,electrochemical.
o Electrochemical sensors analyze the content of target species due to
the direct conversion of a biochemical event into an electronic signal.
o ISFETs are used widely in the growing field of biochemical sensing
applications due to their advantages of label-free detection, easy
miniaturization, integratability, robustness.

2. Physics of EDLTs: The Basics for Sensing
The key feature of an EDLT is the formation of EDLs at the gate
electrode/electrolyte and electrolyte/semiconductor channel
interfaces.
The strong ion-induced EDL capacitive effect endows the EDLTs with
high carrier density, low operating voltage.
2.1 EDL Capacitance and EDLTs
A double layer (DL, also called an electrical double layer, EDL) is a
structure that appears on the surface of an object when it is exposed
to a fluid. The object might be a solid particle, a gas bubble, a
liquid droplet, or a porous body.
Chae et al presented an
amorphous
IGZO-based solution-
gated EDLT
as a biological sensing
platform.
3.3 Nanomaterial-Based EDLT Sensors
carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2)
nanosheet, various inorganic nanowires, etc. nanostructure EDLTs
As early as 2002, Rosenblatt et al. fabricated aSWNT-based
transistor gated by a NaCl solution.
3.3CONTD
graphene devices used for biosensors due to their extremely high
carrier mobility, low intrinsic electrical noise.
solution-gated graphene transistor exhibit ultrahigh sensitivity
high mobilities and ambipolar field-effect characteristics, solution-
gated graphene transistor shows unique radio-frequency properties
Conclusion
The operation of EDLTs is based on the ion-induced capacitive coupling
effect at the electrolyte/semiconductor interfaces.
Due to the strong EDL capacitance, the electrical properties of EDLTs
depend deeply on the charged species at the interface, making EDLTs
more sensitive than common ISFET devices for biochemical sensing
applications
possibilities of processing EDLT sensors by printing technologies could
make their fabrication particularly cost effective for mass production.
contd
EDLT-based sensors exhibit huge potential in the field of Internet of
Things applications, such as wearable medical devices, implantable
sensor chips, real-time environment analyzing, etc
More importantly, based on the inherent properties of dynamic ion
modulation, novel architectures and innovative test methods could be
exploited on EDLT-based sensors, making it feasible for multiplex
sensing and high-resolution temporal-spatial detection.
