Humidity Insensitive Conductometric Sensors for Ammonia Sensing

2014

Interest in molecular materials has been driven in large part by their various and prosperous applications, especially in the domain of organic electronics, where they offer many advantages as well as alternative approaches compared to their inorganic counterparts. Most of conductometric transducers are resistors[[ and transistors[[[, but rarely diodes[6]. In our laboratory, we designed and characterized new molecular material based devices. Molecular Semiconductor Doped Insulator (MSDI) heterojunctions were built around a heterojunction between a Molecular Semiconductor (MS) and a Doped Insulator (DI)[7][8]. This new device exhibits interesting electronic properties that allow ammonia sens…
