Abstract

An integrated circuit sensor array includes a semiconductor substrate; an insulating layer over the substrate; and a first transistor on the insulating layer. The first transistor includes an exposed functionalized channel region in between a source region and a drain region for sensing an analyte in a medium. The integrated circuit sensor array also includes a second transistor formed on the insulating layer, where the second transistor includes an exposed channel region between source and drain regions for sensing a potential of the medium. Further, a voltage bias generator is conductively coupled to the semiconductor substrate for providing the transistors with a bias voltage, the voltage bias generator being responsive to the second transistor.
