Integrated electrochemical transistor as a fast recoverable gas sensor

Integrated electrochemical transistor as a fast recoverable gas sensor

Abstract

A new design of conductometric chemical sensors based on conducting polymers as chemosensitive elements was suggested. The sensor includes six electrodes. Four inner electrodes coated by chemosensitive polymer are used for simultaneous two- and four-point resistance measurements thus providing information on the bulk polymer resistance and on the resistance of the polymer/electrode contacts. Two outer electrodes wired to inner electrodes by polymeric electrolyte are used for electrical control of redox state of the chemosensitive polymer. The outer electrodes are connected to potentiostat as reference and counter electrodes. It allows us to control redox state of the inner (working) electrodes. This new measurement configuration, resembling chemosensitive electrochemical transistors, provides an internal test of the sensor integrity and an electrically driven sensor regeneration. It was tested as a sensor for the detection of nitrogen dioxide. Polythiophene or polyaniline was used as receptors. Cyclic voltammograms of these polymers on the sensor surface measured in air atmosphere were very similar to that measured in aqueous electrolyte. A control of conductivity of these chemosensitive polymers by electrical potential applied vs. incorporated reference electrode was demonstrated. This effect was used for the regeneration of the chemosensitive material after exposure to nitrogen dioxide: in comparison to usual chemiresistors displaying an irreversible behavior in such test even in the time scale of hours, a completely reversible sensor regeneration within few minutes was observed.
