Selective quantification of humidity and ammonia by optical excitation of molecular semiconductor-doped insulator (MSDI) sensors

2015

MSDI (molecular semiconductor-doped insulator) ammonia sensors have been investigated using cyclic optical excitation as multi-signal generation method. This method enables a selective quantification of both humidity in the range of 30–70 %rh and ammonia concentration in the range of 0–30 ppm with a single sensor at room temperature.

Revisiting the electronic properties of Molecular Semiconductor – Doped Insulator (MSDI) heterojunctions through impedance and chemosensing studies

2015

Abstract The core activity of this work was to give a new interpretation of the electronic behavior of Molecular Semiconductor – Doped Insulator heterojunctions (MSDI), a new organic device combining two molecular materials with very different electronic properties. We focused on understanding the phenomenon occurring at the interface of fluorinated and non-fluorinated phthalocyanines that appears to be a determining factor for the electronic charge transport in the two-component thin film and ultimately deciding the nature of gas sensing, as illustrated with ozone and ammonia chosen as examples of accepting and donating gases. The impedance measurements showed that the Schottky contact bet…
