Biosensors based on carbon nanotube resonators
POSTER
Abstract
We have developed biosensors based on carbon nanotubes (CNT) utilizing the resonance frequency measurements. The CNTs, which was attached to a resonant LC impedance-matching circuit whose resonance frequency was about 12GHz, have exhibited the resonance frequency of about 14GHz. However, when biotin molecules were attached on the CNT surface modified with linker and streptavidin, the resonance frequency was shifted to the lower frequency. For comparison, we have carried out similar measurements using as resonator without CNT, but found no resonance frequency shift. Possible origins of resonance frequency shift after attaching biotin on the CNT surface are discussed.
