Dielectrically modulated SOI junctionless FET for breast cancer cell detection
摘要
This study presents a breast cancer cell detector based on a dual cavity dielectric modulated (DM) silicon on insulator (SOI) junctionless field-effect transistor (DM-SOI-JL-FET), designed to detect various breast cancer cell types by incorporating a nanocavity structure. The nanocavity is created by etching the oxide region beneath the left and right sides of the gate. Also, the cavity thickness was optimized with respect to off-state current. Detection is achieved through analysing variations in the dielectric constant of the gate oxide when different breast cancer cells, such as MCF7-10 A, HS578T, MDA-MD-231, MCF7, and T47D, are placed inside the cavity. Sensitivity (S) is calculated as the ratio of the off-state current (
