Superhydrophobic electrode and biosensing device using the same

Abstract:

A method for making a hydrophobic biosensing device includes forming alternating layers over a top and sides of a fin on a dielectric layer to form a stack of layers. The stack of layers are planarized to expose the top of the fin. The fin and every other layer are removed to form a cathode group of fins and an anode group of fins. A hydrophobic surface on the two groups of fins.
