Problems solved by technology

It is more sensitive than the conductivity sensor, but the manufacturing process is much more complicated.
[0004] However, the nanosensor devices introduced above only use the surface effect of nanostructures. Although their sensitivity to chemical gas detection is significantly enhanced compared with thin-film devices, they cannot directly detect and detect single molecules. identify

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and method for sensing detecting the chemistry molecule through the carbon nanometer tube. The device fits the single wall carbon nanometer tube on the substrate, on end of the tube deposits the base point electrode, deposits the coherent electrode on the place where the distance from the other end of the tube is the coherence length of the tube, the base point electrode and the coherent electrode are connected with the detector through the external electrode set on the substrate or connected directly, the tube has the protective coating while the unsupported is exposed as the sensing probe. The making method is: setting the single wall carbon nanometer tube scatter on the insulated substrate, preparing metal base point electrode in one end, depositing metal coherence electrode and two metal external electrodes whose area is micron size in the other end, and connects with the base point electrode and coherence electrode individually.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nano-detection and sensing, and in particular relates to a device and a preparation method for realizing chemical molecule sensing and detection by utilizing nano-scale carbon nanotubes. Background technique [0002] At present, there are many kinds of chemical gas sensors on the market, the main material of which is oxide semiconductor, and the structure is mainly thin film device. The principle of chemical gas detection is mainly based on: 1) the surface scattering probability of carriers is changed after different gases are adsorbed on the surface of the film; 2) the surface carrier concentration is modulated by the adsorbed gas. These two reasons will lead to a change in the conductance of the film, enabling sensing properties. Thin-film sensors are simple in process and low in cost, but their detection sensitivity is low, and most of them need to work at higher temperatures. [0003] With the devel...
