Single-ion dosemeter based on floating gate memories.

Floating Gate (FG) nonvolatile memories are based on a tiny polysilicon layer (the FG) which can be permanently charged with electrons or holes, thus changing the threshold voltage of a MOSFET. Every time a FG is hit by a high energy ion, it experiences a charge loss, depending on the ion linear energy transfer (LET) and on the transistor geometrical and electrical characteristics. This paper discusses the opportunities to use this devices as single an ion dosemeter with sub-micrometer spatial resolution and capable of distinguish the impinging ion LET.

A fully electronic sensor for the measurement of cDNA hybridization kinetics.

Ion sensitive field effect transistors (ISFET) are candidates for a new generation of fully electrical DNA sensors. To this purpose, we have modified ISFET sensors by adsorbing on their Si(3)N(4) surface poly-L-lysine and single (as well as double) stranded DNA. Once coupled to an accurate model of the oppositely charged layers adsorbed on the surface, the proposed sensor allows quantitatively evaluating the adsorbed molecules densities, as well as estimating DNA hybridization kinetics.
