    A highly sensitive silicon nanowire (SiNW)-based sensor device was developed using electron beam lithography integrated with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology. The top-down fabrication approach enables the rapid fabrication of device miniaturization with uniform and strictly controlled geometric and surface properties. This study demonstrates that SiNW devices are well-aligned with different widths and numbers for pH sensing. The device consists of a single nanowire with 60 nm width, exhibiting an ideal pH responsivity (18.26 × 106 Ω/pH), with a good linear relation between the electrical response and a pH level range of 4–10. The optimized SiNW device is employed to detect specific single-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ssDNA) molecules. To use the sensing area, the sensor surface was chemically modified using (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane and glutaraldehyde, yielding covalently linked nanowire ssDNA adducts. Detection of hybridized DNA works by detecting the changes in the electrical current of the ssDNA-functionalized SiNW sensor, interacting with the targeted ssDNA in a label-free way. The developed biosensor shows selectivity for the complementary target ssDNA with linear detection ranging from 1.0 × 10−12 M to 1.0 × 10−7 M and an attained detection limit of 4.131 × 10−13 M. This indicates that the use of SiNW devices is a promising approach for the applications of ion detection and biomolecules sensing and could serve as a novel biosensor for future biomedical diagnosis.

    In this paper, a disposable screen-printed gold electrode (SPGE) utilized of silicon nanowires (SiNWs) and gold nanoparticles as sensing material was fabricated for detection of DNA oligomers related to dengue virus. First, SiNWs/AuNPs-SPGE was developed by the dispersion of SiNWs in 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (0.5%) onto bare SPGE. Second, the AuNPs decoration on SiNWs-SPGE surface was functionalized using dithiopropionic acid through a self-assembly monolayer technique. The electrochemical response of methylene blue (MB) as a redox indicator toward synthetic DNA oligomer after hybridization on SiNWs/AuNPs-SPGE was recorded by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry techniques. The results demonstrated that the reduction peak current of MB was significantly decreased after DNA hybridization process. In addition, the developed biosensor showed a good storage stability and could achieve a linear range of 1 × 10−11 − 1 × 10−7 M (R = 0.98) with the detection limit of 1.63 × 10−12 M.

    New advancements in developing sensitive and selective biosensors have demonstrated outstanding potential for Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA biosensors). The detection mode of DNA biosensors primary depends on a particular DNA hybridization that precisely occurs on the surface of the physical transducer that can only be detected using high-performance assays due to slight current changes. The analytical performance (sensitivity) of the DNA biosensor is conclusively rely on the confluence constructing of the sensing surface, which must be optimized. Thus, in this study, the sensing elements of the developed biosensors were optimized for detecting RNA of SARS-CoV-2. This optimization included concentration of nanomaterials (carbon quantum dots), probe density (concentration of DNA probe) and concentration of linker (APTES). It was observed that 0.15 % V/V of concentration CQD, 0.1µM of DNA probe and 36% V/V of APTES were the optimum parameters which provided their maximum response during electrical measurements and increased the sensitivity of the developed biosensor for SARS-CoV-2 detection
