1. A chemical detection device, comprising:
- a chemically-sensitive transistor having a floating gate structure;
a dielectric overlying the floating gate structure and having a well extending to a top surface of the floating gate structure, the well having sidewalls;
an adhesion layer on the sidewalls of the well, and on the top surface of the floating gate structure; and
a passivation layer on the adhesion layer to define an opening in the well.
