ABSTRACT:
Embodiments feature a sensor including a nanostructure and methods for manufacturing the same. In some embodiments, a sensor includes a substrate, a first electrode disposed on the substrate, and a second electrode disposed on the substrate. The second electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode and surrounding the first electrode. The sensor includes at least one nanostructure contacting the first electrode and the second electrode, in which the nanostructure is configured to vary an electrical characteristic according to an object to be sensed.
