Research Progress of Organic Field‐Effect Transistor Based Chemical Sensors

Abstract

AbstractDue to their high sensitivity and selectivity, chemical sensors have gained significant attention in various fields, including drug security, environmental testing, food safety, and biological medicine. Among them, organic field‐effect transistor (OFET) based chemical sensors have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional sensors, exhibiting several advantages such as multi‐parameter detection, room temperature operation, miniaturization, flexibility, and portability. This review paper presents recent research progress on OFET‐based chemical sensors, highlighting the enhancement of sensor performance, including sensitivity, selectivity, stability, etc. The main improvement programs are improving the internal and external structures of the device, as well as the organic semiconductor layer and dielectric structure. Finally, an outlook on the prospects and challenges of OFET‐based chemical sensors is presented.
