Abstract

A biosensor using a nanodot and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. A silicon nanowire can be formed by a CMOS process to reduce manufacturing costs. In addition, an electrically charged nanodot is coupled to a target molecule to be detected, in order to readily change conductivity of the silicon nanowire, thereby making it possible to implement a biosensor capable of providing good sensitivity and being manufactured at a low cost.
