Abstract

See full text

In one example, a sensor includes a heterojunction bipolar transistor and component sensing surface coupled to the heterojunction bipolar transistor via an extended base component. In another example, a biosensor for detecting a target analyte includes a heterojunction bipolar transistor and a sensing surface. The heterojunction bipolar transistor includes a semiconductor emitter including an emitter electrode for connecting to an emitter voltage, a semiconductor collector including a collector electrode for connecting to a collector voltage, and a semiconductor base positioned between the semiconductor emitter and the semiconductor collector. The sensing surface is coupled to the semiconductor base of the heterojunction bipolar transistor via an extended base component and includes a conducting film and a reference electrode.
