Electronic biosensors are transducers that convert biomolecular or cellular information to electronic readouts. Though advances in electronics keep improving biosensors' performance, often their ultimate detection limits and functionalities constrained at the sensor interfaces. For instance, existing electrochemical optical bioanalytical platforms commonly face challenges immobilizing surface bioreceptors detecting ultra-trace biospecimens due slow mass transport limitation from bulk...
