ABSTRACT:
A DNA sensor including a p-channel field-effect transistor having as a gate an electrolyte solution and having as a channel a diamond surface which contains a mixture of at least a hydrogen-terminated surface and a surface terminated by an amino group or a molecule with an amino group as an amino termination; a probe DNA constituted of a single-stranded DNA with known nucleotide sequence which is directly immobilized by a linker to the amino termination of the diamond surface; and a target DNA constituted of an unknown single-stranded DNA which is dropped on said diamond surface, wherein the hybridization of the target and probe is ascertained by detecting a shift of the threshold voltage of said p-channel field effect transistor toward positive direction which is due to increase in hole density of the p-channel resulting from doubling the negative electric charge of the phosphate groups upon hybridization.
