What Does CHEMFET Stand For?

CHEMFET stands for Chem Modified Field Effect Transistor

CHEMFET, or Chem Modified Field Effect Transistor, is a type of field effect transistor that utilizes chemical modifications to enhance its performance and selectivity for specific target molecules. This device operates by altering the electrical characteristics of the transistor through surface interactions with chemical species, making it particularly useful in sensor applications and for detecting various analytes in environmental monitoring, biomedical diagnostics, and chemical analysis. CHEMFETs are valued for their high sensitivity, rapid response times, and the ability to function in complex chemical environments.
