Abstract

This paper proposes on simulation and characterization of sensing layer for biosensor application. Prostate cancer becomes critical for human being, when it is not detected at an early stage. So biosensor can play a vital role to detect initially. New generation sensor includes carbon nanotube (CNT). It could be better solution for sensing. This paper details biosensor and this aspect single-wall carbon nanotube with 20 Å is analyzed. And the functionalization, surface immobilization, as well as strict monitoring of physical and chemical features of single-wall carbon nanotube are described. These are necessary successful implementation for biomedical sensor. The chirality control, band gap control (semiconducting and metallic) properties along with some unique characteristics are also described with the help of Ninithi software.
