RESUMO

The reversible control of the graphene Dirac point using external chemical stimuli is of major interest in the development of advanced electronic devices such as sensors and smart logic gates. Here, we report the coupling of chemoresponsive polymer brushes to reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-based field-effect transistors to modulate the graphene Dirac point in the presence of specific divalent cations. Poly[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl] phosphate (PMEP) brushes were grown on the transistor channel by atom transfer radical polymerization initiated from amine-pyrene linkers noncovalently attached to rGO surfaces. Our results show an increase in the Dirac point voltage due to electrostatic gating effects upon the specific binding of Ca2+ and Mg2+ to the PMEP brushes. We demonstrate that the electrostatic gating is reversibly controlled by the charge density of the polymer brushes, which depends on the divalent cation concentration. Moreover, a theoretical formalism based on the Grahame equation and a Langmuir-type binding isotherm is presented to obtain the PMEP-cation association constant from the experimental data.

RESUMO

We present the construction of layer-by-layer (LbL) assemblies of polyethylenimine and urease onto reduced-graphene-oxide based field-effect transistors (rGO FETs) for the detection of urea. This versatile biosensor platform simultaneously exploits the pH dependency of liquid-gated graphene-based transistors and the change in the local pH produced by the catalyzed hydrolysis of urea. The use of an interdigitated microchannel resulted in transistors displaying low noise, high pH sensitivity (20.3µA/pH) and transconductance values up to 800 µS. The modification of rGO FETs with a weak polyelectrolyte improved the pH response because of its transducing properties by electrostatic gating effects. In the presence of urea, the urease-modified rGO FETs showed a shift in the Dirac point due to the change in the local pH close to the graphene surface. Markedly, these devices operated at very low voltages (less than 500mV) and were able to monitor urea in the range of 1-1000µm, with a limit of detection (LOD) down to 1µm, fast response and good long-term stability. The urea-response of the transistors was enhanced by increasing the number of bilayers due to the increment of the enzyme surface coverage onto the channel. Moreover, quantification of the heavy metal Cu2+(with a LOD down to 10nM) was performed in aqueous solution by taking advantage of the urease specific inhibition.
