OUTLINE Lab Proceedure Concentration Calculation ISFET
LAB PROCEEDURE Measure Resistance of Chemical Sensor in air Measure Resistance of Chemical Sensor in 10,000 ppm Acetone Set up HP4145 to obtain resistance vs time Take data for 3 min on 3 min off at 1000ppm, 10,000ppm, 100,000ppm Measure ISFET Id vs Vgs in DI water Measure ISFET Id vs Vgs in different pH liquids
CHEMICAL SENSOR MEASUREMENTS Computer controlled ohmmeter measures resistance every second for 15 min. Output is plotted versus time. Mix a polymer with Carbon Black and apply a thin coat over interdigitated gold fingers 30s off, 3 min on, 3 min off, 3 min on, 3 min off, etc.
ICS R VS TIME SETUP Turn on HP4145 and PC Open ICS software on desktop Select NI 32 Thunk Select HP 4145 connect --> configure poll Select Device Icon --> New: give name Select symbol Assign Source Units: SMU1 and SMU2 Click on Time Stimulus: Voltage Measure: Voltage and Current Mode: Constant Value (depends on resistance) Time Measurement Bias: Time Bias OK
ICS R VS TIME SETUP Set up equation for resistance Set up Plot Select Time Measure Then Single
ION-SENSITIVE FETS ISFETS Reference Electrode 2010 Murat Baylav SiO2/Si3N4 Gate Insulator RIT’s First ISFETs Source Drain pH ~ 4 Silicon Ids (Amps) When immersed in a solution containing ions, the ions at the surface of the gate insulator control the drain current similar to a voltage on the gate of a FET. pH ~ 10 Vds pH Vref = -2 volts
