Polymer Thin Film Chemical Sensors

Polymer Thin Film Chemical Sensors

Abstract

Polymer and other organic thin films and multilayers are important for a wide range of applications, including electronics, optoelectronics and sensors. Most modern chemical sensors use semiconducting and conducting polymers because they offer cheap technology, mechanical and size advantages (Gerard et al., 2002; Hangarter et al., 2010; McQuade et al., 2000). They can form selective layers in which the interaction between the analyte substance and the polymer leads to change of a such physical parameter as conductivity. Also they can be used in devices that form circuit elements such as transistors (Dimitrakopoulos & Malenfant, 2002; Qiu et al., 2009). The widespread literature dealing with various applications of these polymers can be divided into two groups: polymers in electronic devices on the one hand (Angelopoulos, 2001) and polymers in chemical sensors based on various transduction mechanisms on the other (Bailey & Persaud, 2001). The sensor applications take advantage of the physical changes that take place in the polymers when they are exposed to various chemicals. This property has its origin in the molecular and macroscopic structure of polymers. In this paper we shall discuss only sensors based on changing of electronic properties of polymers resulting from their interaction with different chemical agents.
