Abstract

Structures for a sensor and fabrication methods for a sensor. Features each having a top surface and a plurality of side surfaces are formed. A sensing layer is formed on the top surface and the side surfaces of each feature, and an interconnect structure having one or more interlayer dielectric layers is formed over the features. The one or more interlayer dielectric layers include a cavity arranged to expose the sensing layer, and the sensing layer is composed of a material that is sensitive to a property of an analyte solution provided in the cavity.
