title: A mercury(II) ion sensor device based on an organic field effect transistor with an extended-gate modified by dipicolylamine.
abstract: Herein, we report an organic field effect transistor (OFET) with an extended-gate modified by an artificial receptor for the detection of mercury(II) ions (Hg(2+)) in water. The sensor device is easy to fabricate, reusable, disposable, and portable. Thus OFET sensors could be applied for low-cost on-site detection of Hg(2+).
