Cover Story: NO2, a well-known pollutant, can cause cancers even with a very small amount. Therefore, we need to build a highly sensitive detecting system for an early warning. There are several sensors available on the market with working principles based on resistive measurements or a chemiluminescence effect, but these are neither sensitive enough for detection of a small amount nor suitable for multiple uses. In this study, we propose a very simple, graphene-based FET device that can detect a sub-ppm level of target molecules with almost zero standby power consumption, working based on the quantum capacitance effect. View this paper
