Abstract

Investigating the suitability of a pH-sensing layer for ion-sensitive field-effect transistors can be costly and time consum-ing. Ways to develop sensing layers with cheaper and faster methods, such as the use of electrolyte-insulator-semicon-ductor structures measured at constant-capacitance, may aid enormously in investigating less understood materials such as Nb2O5. This work shows that constant-capacitance measurements, using 2 different samples having polycrystalline Nb2O5 at 2 different annealing temperatures of 800 °C and 950 °C, can predict successful integration of Nb2O5 into ISFETs that approach Nernstian sensitivity and exhibit low hysteresis from pH 1 to pH 13.
