Room Temperature CO Detection by Hybrid Porphyrin-ZnO Nanoparticles
Procedia Engineering(2015)
摘要
Porphyrins are the natural candidates to the detection of carbon monoxide however the physical properties of solid-state layers of porphyrins limit their use as gas sensors mainly with mass and optical transducers. Recently we shown that the photonic properties of porphyrins, brilliantly exploited in organic solar cells, can lead to a new class of photo-activated sensors made by porphyrins coated metal oxides. Here we investigate the sensitivity to carbon monoxide of resistive sensors made by zinc oxide nanoparticles coated by a porphyrin layer. Sensors were prepared following two different routes and tested, at room temperature and in various light conditions, to CO and few volatile compounds. Results show a significant sensitivity and selectivity to CO.
