    In this research, a silicon nanogap biosensor has the potential to play a significant role in the field of biosensors for detecting Retinol Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) molecules due to its unique nanostructure morphology, biocompatibility features, and electrical capabilities. Additionally, as preliminary research for RBP4, a silicon nanogap biosensor with unique molecular gate control for pH measurement was developed. Firstly, using conventional lithography followed by the Reactive-ion etching (RIE) technique, a nanofabrication approach was utilized to produce silicon nanogaps from silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers. The critical aspects contributing to the process and size reduction procedures were highlighted to achieve nanometer-scale size. The resulting silicon nanogaps, ranging from 100 nm to 200 nm, were fabricated precisely on the device. Secondly, pH level detection was performed using several types of standard aqueous pH buffer solutions (pH 6, pH 7, pH 12) to test the electrical response of the device. The sensitivity of the silicon nanogap pH sensor was 7.66 pS/pH (R² = 0.97), indicating that the device has a wide range of pH detecting capacity. This also includes the silicon nanogap biosensor validated by simulation, with the sensitivity obtained being 3.24 μA/e.cm² (R² = 0.98). The simulation of the sensitivity is based on the interface charge (Qf) that represents the concentration of RBP4. The results reveal that the silicon nanogap biosensor has excellent characteristics for detecting pH levels and RBP4 with outstanding sensitivity performance. In conclusion, this silicon nanogap biosensor can be used as a new electrical RBP4 biosensor for biomedical diagnostic applications in the future.

    Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a disease failed to control the balance of blood sugar level due to lack of insulin thereby it effect human health. In Malaysia, there are around 3.9 millions people aged 18 years old and above have diabetes according to National Health and Morbidity Survey 2019. Silicon Nanowire is a nanostructure which has ultra-high sensitivity and non-radioactive that has potential given good performances when applied on pH sensor and biosensor. Silicon nanowire pH sensor and biosensor is an electronic sensor that investigated to improve the sensitivity and accuracy for detecting DM. This project consists of two parts, which are fabrication of silicon nanowire pH sensor and simulation of silicon nanowire biosensor as preliminary study. In fabrication, silicon nanowire of pH sensor is fabricated by conventional lithography process, reaction ion etching (RIE) and metallization to achieved the width of 100 nm silicon nanowire. The pH6, pH7, pH10 and DI water as analytes to analysis the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of silicon nanowire pH sensor. In second part, the silicon nanowire biosensor as preliminary study is done simulation by Silvaco ATLAS devices simulator. The silicon nanowire with 30 nm in height and 20 nm in width of biosensor is designed and simulated to analyze the performance in terms of sensitivity. I-V characteristics of silicon nanowire biosensor according to different concentration of negative interface charge is determined. The negative interface charge represent as the Retinol Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) which is used to diagnose DM. The I-V characteristic based on the change in current, resistance and conductance to determine sensitivity. Lastly, the sensitivity of silicon nanowire pH sensor obtained 23.9 pS/pH while the sensitivity of simulated silicon nanowire biosensor obtained 3.91 nS/e.cm2. The results shown the more negative charge of concentration analyte attached on surface silicon nanowire has been accumulated more current flow from drain terminal to source terminal. It leads to the resistance becomes highest and obtained good sensitivity. In summary, the silicon nanowire pH sensor exhibited good performance and high sensitivity in detection pH level. The simulated silicon nanowire biosensor is capable of detecting biomolecular interactions charges to obtained high sensitive and accuracy result.
