Research Opens Door to Extremely Sensitive Chemical Sensors that can be Produced in a Cost-Effective Way

An international team of researchers from the Netherlands, Russia and Austria discovered that monolayer coverage and channel length set the mobility in self-assembled monolayer field-effect transistors (SAMFETs). This opens the door to extremely sensitive chemical sensors that can be produced in a cost-effective way.
