Description
Meso, meso-buta-1,3-diyne-bridged Ni (II) octaethylporphyrin dimer thin films have been deposited by the Langmuir–Blodgett method and, for the first time, have been considered as the active layer in resistive gas sensors. In particular, the electrical conductivities of these films undergo a remarkable variation due to exposure to small concentrations of NO in air at an operating temperature of 50 degrees Celsius. To interpret the behavior of such organic films, a model has been built up and the conductivity variation as a function of test gas concentrations and time has been derived. The fitting of theoretical and experimental behavior allows us to determine the number of adsorbed gas molecules per porphyrin dimer, response and recovery times, adsorption and desorption coefficients. The reliability of the model is proved by obtained results. In particular, the determined adsorption and desorption coefficients depend only on test gas species but are unaffected by other experimental conditions such as gas concentration.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
