ABSTRACT

This paper demonstrates an array of SiNWs device was fabricated by Atomic Force Microscope-Local Anodic Oxidation (AFM-LAO) technique for Dengue virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) oligomer detection. The SiNWs were wet etched by using 25 wt% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) with addition of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) at various concentrations (10, 20 and 30 vol%). The produced SiNWs were in trapezoidal shape with different dimension and surface roughness. The surface of SiNWs was modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and glutaraldehyde followed by the immobilized peptide nucleic acid, then hybridized with Dengue DNA oligomer. The hybridization procedure causes a current change due to accumulation of negative charges introduced on SiNWs surface which determines the performance of the device. The small width and rough surface of SiNWs device has high sensitivity (80.3 μAM−1) and low detection limit (2.22 fM).
