DNA Sensing by Silicon Nanowire: Charge Layer Distance Dependence
Abstract
To provide a comprehensive understanding of the field effect in silicon nanowire (SiNW) sensors, we take a systematic approach to fine tune the distance of a charge layer by controlling the hybridization sites of DNA to the SiNW preimmobilized with peptide nucleic acid (PNA) capture probes. Six target DNAs of the same length, but differentiated successively by three bases in the complementary segment, are hybridized to the PNA. Fluorescent images show that the hybridization occurs exclusively on the SiNW surface between the target DNAs and the PNA. However, the field-effect response of the SiNW sensor decreases as the DNA (charge layer) moves away from the SiNW surface. Theoretical analysis shows that the field effect of the SiNW sensor relies primarily on the location of the charge layer. A maximum of 102% change in resistance is estimated based on the shortest distance of the DNA charge layer (4.7 A) to the SiNW surface.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
