Fresh Approach for High-Throughput Studies of Ion-Selective Materials Using Reusable ChemFET Platform

Description: 
Aqueous anions play an important role in our world, and the ability to continuously measure them provides both environmental and health benefits. Chemically-sensitive field effect transistors (ChemFETs) are becoming increasingly popular in the field of aqueous measurement due to their relatively low-cost capability for real-time, continuous sensing. Receptor molecules or mixtures displaying affinity for a particular ion can also be utilized in a ChemFET gate membrane. Receptors can be incorporated into the gate oxide membrane and the entire ChemFET can utilized in an aqueous environment, thus utilizing hydrophobic receptors in an aqueous anion-sensing application. Demonstrating the ability to reuse the sensors validates an important characteristic for ChemFET-based research. Additionally, numerous other receptor molecules are evaluated against an array of common anions. Selectivity coefficients are compared to the Hofmeister Series. Additional membranes are evaluated for suitability for incorporation of receptors on the ChemFET gate oxide surface. This thesis includes previously unpublished co-authored material.
