Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been the most significant driver in the field of nucleic acid testing (NAT) since its invention. Popularized as an abbreviation by the Covid-19 pandemic, PCR-based methods are the gold standard in the field of diagnostic ...
The present invention relates to a device to carry out semiconductor based molecular diagnostics comprising a microfluidic chip carrier 1, an elastomer microfluidic module 2 and a CMOS chip 3, one surface of said microfluidic module facing and contacting o ...
This paper reports a novel miniaturized pseudo reference electrode (RE) design for biasing Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistors (ISFETs). It eliminates the need for post-CMOS processing and can scale up in numbers with the CMOS scaling. The presented des ...
A tunnel field effect transistor (TFET), including a source region, a gate region, a channel region, and a drain region, the gate region including a gate stack, wherein an area of the source region that is facing the channel region is overlapped by the gat ...
