A new bio-molecular electronic architectural concept is presented that has potential for defining nanoscale sensor platforms with enhanced capabilities for sensing terahertz (THz) frequency bio-signatures. This architecture makes strategic use of integrated biological elements to enable communication and high-level function within densely-packed nanoelectronic systems. Specifically, a completely new paradigm for establishing hybrid Electro-THz-Optical (ETO) communication channels is introduced. Here, the THz-frequency spectral characteristics that are uniquely associated with the embedded bio-molecules are utilized directly in the architecture design and this immediately allows for defining new methods for enhanced sensing of THz bio-signatures. This integrated sensor concept greatly facilitates the collection of THz bio-signatures associated with embedded bio-molecules via interactions with the time-dependent signals propagating through the nanoelectronic circuit. In addition, it leads to a new Multi-State Spectral Sensing (MS3) approach where bio-signature information can be collected from multiple metastable state conformations. This paper presents new simulation results for a class of bio-molecular components that exhibit the prescribed type of ETO characteristics. Most noteworthy, this research derives THz spectral bio-signatures for organic molecules that are amenable to photo-induced metastable-state conformations and establishes an initial scientific foundation and design blueprint for an enhanced THz bio-signature sensing capability.
