Effect of Cleaning on Sensing

Cleaning causes:- Reduction in carrier density here from 3.3×1012/cm2 to 6.2×1011/cm2

- Increase in mobility here from 1000 cm2/V-s to 2600 cm2/V-s

- Decrease in chemical sensitivity

Why ssDNA?• Chemical sensing is moving beyond “single

type” sensors – focus on useful diversity and “electronic nose” approaches

• Diverse chemistry (e.g., 420 ~ 1012

sequences for 20-mer)• Existing literature on ssDNA functionalized

sensors.

- 200 mg/mL single stranded DNA solution

- non-covalent functionalization

- graphene is exposed to DNA for 45 minutes

- DNA code is used to alter the chemical properties of the applied bio-polymer

DNA-graphene interaction

modeling would predict around 1.5×1014 bases/cm2 at 100% coverage

we measure an increase in doping of around 6.2×1011 /cm2 carriers

direction is consistent with negatively charged adsorbates

ssDNA deposition leads to

- expected gate shift

- lowered mobility

Sensing Results - DMMP

DMMP

- no response with clean graphene

- response with ssDNA is concentration dependent

- response changes depending on sequence of applied ssDNA

Chemically Gating in Two Directions

Chemical gating response, probably mediated by water – direction and magnitude is similar to ssDNA-CNT responses

- Changes in sequence show a dramatic ability to change chemical sensitivity- demonstrates differentiation between very similar chemicals

Summary- Clean graphene makes a poor chemical sensor

- Graphene can be easily functionalized with ssDNA, with a predictable gate shift

- ssDNA-graphene devices show vastly improved chemical sensing over pristine graphene

- Changing ssDNA sequence does alter chemical sensitivity of graphene
