Abstract: A field effect transistor (FET) biosensor for virus detection of a selected virus within a sample volume is disclosed. The FET comprises a semiconductor substrate, a source and drain electrode on the substrate, the electrodes spaced to form a channel. A gate electrode carried on the substrate and located in the channel between the source and drain electrodes. An insulating layer is coupled to a top surface of the gate electrode and a bottom surface of the source and drain electrodes, with an open channel above the insulating layer. A channel material is coupled to the insulating layer. Aptamers are oriented within the open channel to bind to the channel material and with the selected virus to enable a detection of the selected virus by the FET biosensor based on a change in drain-source current at a selected gate voltage.

Abstract: In some aspects, a micro-plasma device comprises a plasma gas enclosure containing at least one plasma gas, and a plurality of electrodes interfaced with the plasma gas enclosure. In other aspects, a micro-plasma circuitry apparatus comprises a first layer having a cavity formed therein and a second layer having a circuit formed therein. The circuit includes a micro-plasma circuit (“MPC”) that includes one or more micro-plasma devices (“MPDs”). The first layer of the circuit is bonded to the second layer of the circuit thereby forming an enclosure that contains at least one plasma gas. An excitation voltage is applied to a drain electrode of the MPDs to generate a conductive plasma path between the drain electrode and a source electrode.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed related to devices, systems. and methods for detecting a target particle. The device can include a field generator source which emits an incident electromagnetic field: a resonator having a focusing structure to focus the incident electromagnetic field in a gap region that accepts the target particle; and a receiver to detect a resonant signal from the resonator, where the resonant signal shifts due to presence of the target particle in the gap region.

Abstract: A nervous system interface device can include a flexible active layer, a power coil, a communication module, and an antenna. More specifically, the flexible active layer can included a plurality of electrodes that are positioned to take neural measurements of the nervous system. The power coil can be electrically coupled to the flexible active layer and can be configured to receive wireless power from a power transfer device. The communication module can be electrically coupled to the flexible active layer and can be configured to receive power from the power coil. The antenna can also be adapted to wirelessly communicate neural measurement information to another device (e.g. an external computing device, receiver or the like). The nervous system interface device has two functional configurations which include a rolled and an unrolled configuration. In the rolled configuration the nervous system electrode device is rolled along a longitudinal axis for insertion into a hypodermic needle. In the unrolled configuration the nervous system electrode device is substantially flat. These nervous system electrode devices can dramatically improve access to brain function information, increase brain-machine interface functionality, and decrease foreign body response.

Abstract: A method for reducing electrode gap distances in an electronic device having a first electrode spatially separated from a second electrode by an electrode gap can comprise selecting (810) a milometer gap size to bind a biological material based on a size of the biological material and binding effects with the biological material. The method can further comprise coating (820) at least one surface of an electrode gap region with a first layer including molecular recognition groups, and coating (830) the at least one surface with a second layer including electrically-conductive solids that are configured to bond with the molecular recognition groups. The electronic device can be further coated (840) with additional alternating layers of the molecular recognition groups and the electrically-conductive solids to reach the nanometer gap size between a first electrode and a second electrode of the electronic device.
