Sensing biomolecules is essential in the fields of medicine, pharmacy and biotechnology. Normally it goes along with previous preparation steps like labelling of the molecules. To avoid these complex preparation processes we are aiming at a detection of such molecules using pre-treated semiconductor surfaces. The optical emission of surface-near polar InGaN/GaN quantum well layers reacts on the attachment of biomolecules to the surface.
The surface-near band bending is changed by the deposition of biomolecules like ferritin, which are adsorbed on a functionalized layer on the surface. As a result the emitted wavelength and intensity of the emission changes, depending on the biomolecule.
