[0106] Step 6, the polymer semiconductor channel 3 was patterned by reactive ion etching (RIE) using the drain 4 as a mask plate, and the excess poly[thiophene-bis(2-(2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)-2,2'-bithiophene] was removed to avoid invalid doping; the etching gas in the reactive ion etching was inert gas argon, the flow rate was 15 sccm, the etching power was 25 w, and the etching time was 250 s.

[0107] Step 7, the first floating gate 9 was formed by coating Ag / AgCl paste on the first substrate 1 using a pre-customized mask plate, and then placing the first substrate 1 in an inert gas atmosphere and performing thermal annealing at 100 ℃ for 30 min, and the second floating gate 12 was formed by coating Ag / AgCl paste on the second substrate 11 using a pre-customized mask plate, and then placing the second substrate 11 in an inert gas atmosphere and performing thermal annealing at 100 ℃ for 30 min, wherein the length of the first floating gate 9 and the second floating gate 12 was 11 mm, the width was 6 mm, and the thickness was 5 μm.

[0108] Step 8, 10 μL of tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP) aqueous solution with a concentration of 1 mmol / L was added into 100 μL of PBS buffer solution of the target analyte targeting probe molecules with a concentration of 1 μmol / L to obtain a mixed solution. The purpose of adding tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP) aqueous solution is to open the disulfide bond of the target analyte targeting probe molecules to better bind to the surface of the gate 5. The mixed solution was dropped into the PDMS tank for fixing the modification area, and the second substrate 11 was placed in an environment at 4°C for 15 h for modification to form a layer of the target analyte targeting probe molecules.

[0109] Step 9, the modified surface of the gate 5 was washed with PBS buffer solution, and the surface was blown dry with an ear bulb. In the PDMS tank in step 8, 100 μL of MCH solution with a concentration of 1 mmol / L was added and left to stand at room temperature for 1 h to form a 6-mercapto-1-hexanol blocking layer. The purpose of standing for 1 h is to make the MCH solution cover the surface of the gate 5 which is not covered by the layer of the target analyte targeting probe molecules, and to make the probe molecules arrange regularly to prevent non-specific adsorption on the surface of the gate 5. Then, the surface of the gate 5 was washed with PBS buffer solution to form a gate modification layer 8 with a length of 9 mm, a width of 5 mm and a thickness of 5 nm.

[0110] Step 10, 0.1 mol / L NaCl aqueous solution was dropped on the first substrate 1, the polymer semiconductor channel 3 and the first floating gate 9 as the first electrolyte layer 6; PBS buffer solution was dropped on the second substrate 11, the gate modification layer 8 and the second floating gate 12 as the second electrolyte layer 7, and the first floating gate 9 was connected to the second floating gate 12 by the copper wire 10 to complete the preparation of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor.

[0111] Among them, the first substrate 1, the source 2, the polymer semiconductor channel 3, the drain 4, the first electrolyte layer 6 and the first floating gate 9 are the organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) device module, and the second substrate 11, the gate 5, the gate modification layer 8, the second electrolyte layer 7 and the second floating gate 12 are the sensing module. The OECT device module is used to amplify the signal perceived by the sensing module, and the two modules together constitute the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor. A drain voltage (Vd) is applied in the loop composed of the source 2, the polymer semiconductor channel 3 and the drain 4 (Vd), and the source 2 is grounded. V DS A gate voltage (Vg) is applied in the loop composed of the source 2, the first floating gate 9, the second floating gate 12, the wire 10, the first electrolyte layer 6, the second electrolyte layer 7, the gate 5 and the gate modification layer 8 (Vg), and the source 2 is grounded. V GS ​

[0112] The performance improvement mechanism of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor of the present embodiment is as follows:

[0113] 1) Effect of floating gate material on device performance: First, the performance of the OECT device module is optimized, the source 2, the first floating gate 9 and the first electrolyte layer 6 form a loop, and the first floating gate 9 is applied with a gate voltage, and the source 2 is grounded; the source 2, the polymer semiconductor channel 3 and the drain 4 form a loop, and the drain 4 is applied with a drain voltage, and the source 2 is grounded. First, use the polarizable electrode Au as the electrode material of the first floating gate 9 to test the long-term stability of the device module, as shown in Figure 2 , the maximum on-state current of the device module changes irregularly during the triangular wave cyclic scanning process, and this poor cyclic stability will bring problems of excessive noise and baseline drift in the subsequent device module test. Subsequently, use the non-polarizable electrode Ag / AgCl as the electrode material of the first floating gate 9 to test the cyclic stability, as shown in Figure 3 , the device module has good cyclic stability, and the performance of the device module almost does not decay within 3000 s of testing time, which meets the testing requirements of the sensor on performance stability. Therefore, it is speculated that the reason for the poor test stability when Au is used as the gate material is that it is a polarizable electrode, and charges accumulate on the surface during the test, causing the electrolyte and gate interface capacitance to change constantly, which in turn affects the potential at the polymer semiconductor channel, which is manifested as the source-drain current constantly drifting from the perspective of device electrical performance. However, the gate modification layer 8 can only bind with Au, so the present application uses Ag / AgCl paste as the floating gate to read the surface potential change of the gate 5, thereby realizing the conduction of the device module and greatly improving the stability of the device.

[0114] 2) Effect of different gate voltage application on device performance: The second floating gate 12 reads the surface potential change of the gate 5, and the test results are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , when a positive voltage is applied to the surface of the gate 5, the second floating gate 12 reads out a voltage that is linearly related to the applied triangular wave voltage, but when a negative voltage is applied to the surface of the gate 5, the read-out voltage has a large loss compared to the applied voltage, and the voltage modulation range is small, and as the number of scanning cycles increases, charges further accumulate on the surface of the gate 5, and the read-out voltage of the second floating gate 12 decreases due to the increase in the surface capacitance of the gate 5. Therefore, in the PBS solution environment, the adsorption and desorption processes of anions on the surface of the gate 5 are reversible under positive gate voltage, but the adsorption and desorption processes of cations are basically irreversible under negative gate voltage, resulting in a small range of actual gate voltage change and weak modulation effect on the device current. Therefore, when testing, a positive gate voltage should be applied to the gate 5 to ensure that the device has a high sensitivity to small voltage changes and produces a significant current response.

[0115] 3) The influence of effective gate voltage test on device performance: Based on the above influence of different gate voltages on device performance, the present application proposes to change the traditional transfer curve test method of applying constant negative drain voltage and scanning negative gate voltage to applying constant 0.1 V positive gate voltage on the gate, and simultaneously applying 0~0.6 V triangular wave voltage scanning on the drain 4. In this process, when the drain 4 voltage is greater than 0.1 V, the gate potential is less than the drain 4 potential, at this time a positive field of the drain 4 pointing to the gate will be generated, and the anions will move to the channel under the action of the electric field force, realizing the doping of the p-type channel under the positive voltage.

[0116] The feasibility of the effective gate voltage test method is analyzed below to determine the modulation range and stability of the applied voltage. As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 , in the case of applying a positive voltage, the actual voltage reading of the gate is linear and stable, indicating that this effective gate voltage test method is feasible in principle. The sensing and detection principle is that after specific binding between the measured object and the probe, the electrolyte and the gate interface capacitor C G changes, thereby affecting the actual gate voltage division. Therefore, before being formally applied to actual pathogen detection, the stability of the device under this mode and the sensitivity to changes in gate voltage need to be tested.

[0117] As shown in Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , the initial drain current I d = 9.27 mA, after one hour of standing I d = 9.37 mA, with a change of about 1 %, which meets the stability requirements of the device test. Subsequently, the specific binding process at the gate is simulated, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 , the biased gate voltage is changed from 0 V to 0.05 V, and the device I d changes from 10.21 mA to 9.27 mA, and a voltage change of 50 mV causes a current response of about 1 mA, proving the feasibility of the OECT (Organic Electrochemical Transistor) device using the effective gate voltage test method for pathogen marker detection.

[0118] Based on the above test results, it can be seen that the setting of the floating gate structure greatly improves the stability of the device during long-term operation, avoiding problems such as excessive noise and baseline drift during subsequent sensing tests. When Au is used as the gate electrode material, ion adsorption and accumulation on the surface occur due to its polarization characteristics during the test process, and this process is only reversible under positive gate voltage. A new effective gate voltage test method is proposed, in which the bias gate voltage and the drain voltage range of the triangular wave scan are set reasonably, and under the driving of the electric field force, anions are doped into the channel and coupled out of the holes, realizing the conduction of the device. Under this test method, the performance of the device only shifts by 1% under 1 h of static conditions, and for a voltage shift of 50 mV, it produces a current response change of nearly 1 mA, greatly confirming the feasibility and superiority of this new test method.

[0119] Example 2

[0120] This embodiment relates to the application of a p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor; the p-type organic electrochemical transistor sensor can realize the detection of trace pathogen markers (such as H1N1 virus RNA), and the specific method is as follows:

[0121] Step 1, 10 PBS solutions with a concentration gradient of 10 -12 mol / L~10 -21 mol / L H1N1 RNA were prepared by gradient dilution method.

[0122] Step 2, place the PDMS tank for testing on the surface of the gate 5 of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor prepared in Example 1, and use a pipette to add 250 μL of PBS buffer solution in the PDMS tank, apply a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0.2 V~ -0.4 V to the first floating gate 9, and apply a bias voltage of -0.6 V between the source 2 and the drain 4, and perform a conventional transfer curve test; then apply a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0~0.6 V between the source 2 and the drain 4, and apply a bias voltage of 0.3 V to the gate, and perform an effective gate voltage test, repeat 10 scanning periods, and take the average value of the maximum current of each period as the baseline current.

[0123] Step 3, after the test is completed, the second substrate 11 with the gate 5 used for testing is taken out, the surface thereof is rinsed using PBS buffer solution, the surface of the gate 5 is blown dry and clean using an ear bulb, then PBS buffer solution is added dropwise on the gate modification layer 8 for incubation, and the time is consistent with the time required for specific binding in subsequent step 4. After the incubation is completed, the surface thereof is rinsed using PBS buffer solution, the surface of the gate 5 is blown dry and clean using an ear bulb, the PDMS tank used for testing is placed on the surface of the gate 5, 250 μL of PBS buffer solution is added into the PDMS tank using a pipette, a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0.2 V~ -0.4 V is applied to the first floating gate 9, a bias voltage of -0.6 V is applied between the source 2 and the drain 4, and a conventional transfer curve test is performed; then a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0~0.6 V is applied between the source 2 and the drain 4, a bias voltage of 0.3 V is applied to the gate 5, an effective gate voltage test is performed, 10 scanning periods are repeated, and the average value of the maximum current of each period is taken as the noise current.

[0124] Step 4, after the test is completed, the second substrate 11 is taken out, the surface thereof is rinsed using PBS buffer solution, the surface of the gate 5 is blown dry and clean using an ear bulb, then a test concentration of PBS solution is added dropwise on the gate modification layer 8 for incubation, and the time can be adjusted according to the test purpose (for example, the binding time required for the minimum detection limit in this embodiment is 1 h, and the binding time required for the fastest detection speed is 5 min). After the incubation is completed, the surface thereof is rinsed using PBS buffer solution, the surface of the gate is blown dry and clean using an ear bulb, the PDMS tank used for testing is placed on the surface of the gate, 250 μL of PBS buffer solution is added into the PDMS tank using a pipette, a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0.2 V~ -0.4 V is applied to the first floating gate 9, a bias voltage of -0.6 V is applied between the source 2 and the drain 4, and a conventional transfer curve test is performed; then a triangular wave scanning voltage of 0~0.6 V is applied between the source 2 and the drain 4, a bias voltage of 0.3 V is applied to the gate 5, an effective gate voltage test is performed, 10 scanning periods are repeated, and the average value of the maximum current of each period is taken as the response current.

[0125] The principle of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor for detecting H1N1 according to the present application is shown in Figure 12 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15 . The specific RNA sequence of the H1N1 virus can specifically bind to the single-stranded DNA probe modified at the gate 5, and after the binding, the ion transfer to the surface of the gate 5 increases the impedance, reduces the electrolyte and gate interface capacitance C G . Since the electrolyte and channel capacitance C ChThe series relationship is thus established, and the partial pressure of the electrolyte and the channel interface is divided after specific binding occurs V G,Ch The amount of cations driven into the channel by the electric field is reduced, and the source-drain current changes accordingly. Since the amount of change in the effective gate voltage V G,Ch is directly proportional to the concentration of H1N1, the amount of change in the source-drain current is also directly proportional to the concentration of H1N1.

[0126] To verify the ability of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor to detect low concentrations of biomarkers, a test of ultra-low concentration (10 -20 mol / L) H1N1 was performed using the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor of Example 1, with a binding time of 1 h for the H1N1 marker and the target probe molecule. The data results are shown in FIGS. Figure 16 、 Figure 17 、 Figure 18 、 Figure 19 、 Figure 20 、 Figure 21 and Figure 22 . The baseline current I d,基线 = 7.50±0.03 mA. The noise current I d,噪声 = 7.45±0.02 mA. The shift in the second test data compared to the baseline is taken as the test noise, and the concentration corresponding to a three-fold response of the test noise is defined as the detection limit (LoD). Here, the three-fold noise = 3( I d,基线 - I d,噪声 ) = 136.4 μA. Finally, the response current I d,响应 = 7.13±0.03 mA. In summary, the amount of change in the current Δ I d = I d,噪声 - I d,响应 = 7.45-7.13 = 329.8 μA> 136.4 μA, and the detection is successful. At the same time, a transfer curve test was performed before the effective gate voltage test, to determine whether the performance of the device had degraded. As can be seen from FIGS. Figure 19 、 Figure 20 and Figure 21 , the performance of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor did not degrade during the test, meaning that the 10 -20 mol / L H1N1 virus was successfully detected.

[0127] In practical application, the minimum detection limit of the device is important, but the rapid current detection in a short time is more in line with the real application scenario. Therefore, the lowest detection limit that can be achieved in combination with the time of 5 min is further explored. The concentration of H1N1 used is 10 -17 mol / L, and the data results are shown in Figure 23 、 Figure 24 、 Figure 25 、 Figure 26 、 Figure 27 、 Figure 28 and Figure 29 . The baseline current I d,基线 = 4.44±0.01 mA. The noise current I d,噪声 = 4.42±0.01 mA, three times the noise = 3( I d,基线 - I d,噪声 ) =51.9 μA, the response current I d,响应 = 4.34±0.04 mA. In summary, the current change amount Δ I d = I d,噪声 - I d,响应 = 4.42-4.34= 80.9 μA>51.9 μA, the detection is successful. At the same time, it can be seen from Figure 26 、 Figure 27 and Figure 28 that the performance of the device does not decay during the test, which means that the 10 -17 mol / L H1N1 virus is successfully detected in the combination time of 5 min.

[0128] In order to realize the quantitative analysis of the concentration of H1N1 in the sample to be tested, H1N1 variable concentration test is carried out in PBS buffer, and the concentration range is from 10 -16 mol / L to 10 -12 mol / L. It can be seen from Figure 30 that the current change response has a good linear relationship with the concentration of H1N1, which reflects the superiority of the performance and test method of the device, and the quantitative detection of H1N1 can be realized.

The data results are shown in FIGS. 1-3. Figure 31 、 Figure 32 、 Figure 33 、 Figure 34 、 Figure 35 、 Figure 36 and Figure 37 . The baseline current I d,基线 = 4.82±0.11 mA. The noise current I d,噪声 = 4.83±0.08 mA. The shift of the second test data compared with the baseline is taken as the test noise, and the concentration corresponding to a three-fold response of the test noise is defined as the detection limit (LoD). Here, the three-fold noise = 3( I d,基线 - I d,噪声 ) = 30 μA. Finally, the response current I d,响应 = 4.62±0.13 mA. In summary, the amount of current change Δ I d = I d,噪声 - I d,响应 = 4.83-4.62 = 210 μA>30 μA, and the detection is successful. At the same time, a transfer curve test was performed before the effective gate voltage test, to determine whether the performance of the device has been attenuated. From Figure 34 、 Figure 35 and Figure 36It can be seen that the performance of the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor did not decay during the test, meaning that the p-type organic electrochemical transistor biosensor of the present application can be used for a long time. -20 mol / L H1N1 virus was successfully detected.

The data results are shown in Figure 38 、 Figure 39 、 Figure 40 、 Figure 41 、 Figure 42 、 Figure 43 and Figure 44 . The baseline current I d,基线 = 6.68±0.03 mA. The noise current I d,噪声 = 6.73±0.01 mA. The shift in the data of the second test compared to the baseline was taken as the test noise, and the concentration corresponding to a three-fold response of the test noise was defined as the limit of detection (LoD). Here, the three-fold noise = 3( I d,基线 - I d,噪声 ) = 150 μA. Finally, the response current I d,响应= 6.56±0.01 mA.
