Comparative NH₃-sensing in palladium, nickle and cobalt tetra-(tert-butyl)-5,10,15,20-tetraazaporphyrin spin-coating films

2011

Spin-coating films of palladium, nickle, and cobalt tetra-(tert-butyl)-5,10,15,20-tetraazaporphyrin complex (Pd, Ni, and CoTAP(t-Bu)₄) were obtained and characterized by absorption spectra and atomic force microscopy. The gas sensing behaviors of the films were investigated with respect to NH₃ at room temperature. In addition, the effects of film morphology and center metal on gas sensing properties were also discussed. It was found that the MTAP(t-Bu)₄ complexes exhibited good response, reversibility, stability and ultrafast response and recovery characteristic to NH₃. The responses were in the following order: PdTAP(t-Bu)₄, NiTAP(t-Bu)₄ and CoTAP(t-Bu)₄. The response and recovery times of Pd, Ni, and CoTAP(t-Bu)₄) films were <20s, 70s and 50s, respectively.
