Recent Advances in Graphene Field‐Effect Transistor Toward Biological Detection

Abstract Recently, field‐effect transistors (FETs) have emerged as a novel type of multiparameter, high‐performance, highly integrated platform for biochemical detection, leveraging their classical three‐terminal structure, working principles, and fabrication methods. Notably, graphene materials, known for their exceptional electrical and optical properties as well as biocompatibility, serve as a fundamental component of these devices, further enhancing their advantages in biological detection. This review places special emphasis on recent advancements in graphene field‐effect transistor (GFET)‐based biosensors and focuses on four main areas: i) the basic concepts of FETs and the specific electrical properties of GFETs; ii) various state‐of‐the‐art approaches to enhance the performance of GFET‐based biosensors in terms of operating principles and the “3S”—stability, sensitivity, and specificity; iii) multiplexed detection strategies for GFET‐based biosensors; and iv) the current challenges and future perspectives in the field of GFET‐based biosensors. It is hoped that this article can profoundly elucidate the development of GFET biosensors and inspire a broader audience.
