The goal of the research presented in this dissertation is to develop new electrical biosensors through the direct chemical functionalization of semiconductor surfaces with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs).The monolayers serve as a linker that attracts a target analyte, connecting biology with technology. cache/1c18df67q0n.txt txt/1c18df67q0n.txt
