Outline of Research at the Start |
The research aims to (1) demonstrate the novel method to reduce the adsorption of oxygen and water molecules on graphene nanoribbon field-effect transistor (GNR-FET) with fluoropolymer GNR (FGNR) as a dielectric and hydrophobic layer, (2) detect multiple volatile organic compounds (VOC) with 1 ppt sensitive and selective detection of individual VOC gas molecules.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
we fabricated partially suspended monolayer graphene surface acoustic wave gas sensors (G-SAWs) with a love-mode wave to effectively detect ppt-level acetone gas molecules at room temperature. The sputtered SiO2 thin film on the surface of a black 36°YX-LiTaO3 (B-LT) substrate acted as a guiding layer, effectively reducing the noise and insertion loss. The G-SAWs exhibited enhanced gas response towards acetone gas molecules (800 ppt) in a real-time atmosphere. The high sensitivity of the G-SAW sensor can be attributed to the elasticity and surface roughness of the SiO2 film. In addition, the G-SAW sensor exhibited rapid response and recovery at room temperature. This study provides a potential strategy for diagnosing different stages of diabetes in the human body.
