Detection of Green-Synthesized Fe3O4/ Chitosan Using Spin Valve GMR Sensor with Wheatstone Bridge Circuit
Abstract:
Detection of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPS) label is essential to determine the performance of giant magnetoresistance (GMR) sensors in biosensing technology. This research identifies the potency of green-synthesized Fe3O4/Chitosan on GMR sensors, which has never been explored. MNPS label was synthesized by the coprecipitation method based on the green synthesis route because cost-effective, non-toxic, and reduces waste production. Chitosan is considered the best polymer candidate as a stabilizer of Fe3O4 because they are biodegradable, biocompatible, and hydrophilic. The characteristics of Fe3O4/Chitosan with several concentrations and the effect on sensor signals were investigated. Measurement of Fe3O4/Chitosan using a spin-valve based sensor with a Ta (2nm)/Ir20Mn80(10nm)/Co90Fe10(3nm)/Co84Fe10B4(10nm)/Ta (5nm) structure on Si/SiO2 substrate. Fe3O4/Chitosan has a spherical shape with an inverse spinel cubic structure. The crystallite sizes of Fe3O4/Chitosan (1:1) and Fe3O4/Chitosan (2:1) are 7.9 and 7.5 nm, respectively. Fourier transforms infrared spectra of Fe3O4/Chitosan showed the NH2 bending at 1560 cm−1, C-O-C stretching at 1386 cm−1, and Fe-O stretching at 580 cm−1. The results indicate that chitosan effectively coated the surface of Fe3O4. The sensitivity of the GMR sensor increased to 0.04 mV/mg/mL and 0.05 mV/mg/mL, in the case of Fe3O4/Chitosan (1:1) and Fe3O4/Chitosan (2:1). The increase in the sensitivity was caused by the decrease in diamagnetic material composition, crystallite size and the increase in the saturation magnetization of Fe3O4/Chitosan. Green-synthesized Fe3O4/Chitosan can be detected by GMR sensor by providing a low external magnetic field within the 60s and reach ruthless performance as a magnetic label to be applied to biosensors application in the future.
