Crystalline Microwires of Rubrene for Chemical Sensing
2011
Crystalline nano- and microwires of Rubrene are synthesized from a gas phase deposition method and the sensing behavior of microwires is studied. The resistivity of the microwires in N 2 is 8.82 ± 1.80 × 10 3 Ω•cm. The current of the microwires increases when the microwires are exposed to O 2 and decreases on exposure to electron deficient aromatic molecules, such as nitrobenzene and benzaldehyde, suggesting the resistivity change of rubrene microwires may have potential applications in selective chemical sensors for O 2 and electron deficient aromatic molecules, particularly nitro-containing explosive chemicals.
