Abstract

The NO$_2$gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films of Copper-tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine(CuTBP). The optimum conditions for a film deposition were obtained through a study of $\pi$-A isotherms, and the deposited film status was confirmed by the ellipsometry measurements. It was found that at room temperature there are increments of electrical conductivities by 40 times, 25 seconds of response time and 40 seconds of response time when the films were exposed to the 200ppm NO$_2$gases. We hale observed an increase of the electrical conductivities as the density of NO2 gas increases.
