The N $O_{2}$ gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of Copper-tetra-tert-butylphthalocyanine (CuTBP), Dilithium phthalocyanine (Li$_{2}$Pc), N-docosylpyridinium TCNQ(C$_{22}$Py(TCNQ)), Polyamic acid alkylamine salts (PAAS). The optimum conditions for a film deposition were obtained through a study of .pi.-.ALPHA. isotherms and the deposited film status was confirmed by electrical and optical methods such as UV/visible absortion spectra, thickness measurements by ellipsometry, and electrical capacitances. A response of the LB films to the N $O_{2}$ gas was measured by a change of the electrical conductivities when the film is exposed to the gases. The CuTBP LB film shows the biggest change of the electrical conductivities when it is exposed to the N $O_{2}$ gases. And the order of gas-detection performance is the following;Li$_{2}$Pc, $C_{22}$Py(TCNQ), and PAAS LB films. Especially, the CuTBP and Li$_{2}$Pc LB films not only show the bigger change in the electircal conductivities when exposed to the gas, but return to the original state when the gas is desorbed.d.

It is well known that the metallo-phthalocyanines (MPcs) are sensitive to toxic gaseous molecules such as NO$_2$ as well as are chemically and thermally stable. Therefore, lots of MPcs have been studied as the potential chemical sensor for NO$_2$gas using quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) or electrical conductivity. In this study, thin films of octa(2-ethylhexyloxy)copper-phthalocyanine were prepared by Langmuir-Blodgett method and characterized by using UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy and ellipsometry. Optimal transfer condition of LB films was investigated and preliminary results of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics of these films exposed to NO$_2$gas as a function of film thickness, temperature and concentration were discussed.

In this paper, $NO_2$ gas detection characteristics of Octa-dodecyloxy copper-phthalocyanine films prepared by LB method was investigated measuring the electrical conductance of these films. The electivity characteristics of these LB films exposed to $NO_2, NO, and SO_2$ gas was also investigated. Conductivity activation energy of these films as a function of temperature was obtained.

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.

The NO$_2$ gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film of Copper-tetra-tert-butylphalocyanine(CUTBP). The optimum conditions for a film deposition were obtained through a study of $\pi$-A isotherm and the deposited film status was confirmed by ellipsometry measurements. In the NO$_2$ response experiments, first of all, the proper number of layer was obtained by a change of the electrical conductivities depending on the number of layer when the film is exposed to the gas. And response time, recovery time, and reproducibility were measured on it. On the other hand, how the NO$_2$ gas interacts to the LB film was studied by UV/visible absorption spectra.

Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method is one of the ways of fabricating organic ultra thin films. It is well known that It has the advantage to control the alignment and orientation of the molecules in the films. Metallo-phthalocyanines (MPcs) are sensitive to electron affinitive toxic gaseous molecules, such as $NO_2$, NO, $SO_2$. In this study, thin films of octa-dodecyloxy copper-phthalocyanine were prepared by LB method and characterized by using UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy and ellipsometry. Optimal transfer condition of LB films was investigated and preliminary results of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of these films exposed to $NO_2$ gas as a function of film thickness.

We have manufacture Copper-tetra-tert-butylphalocyanine (CuTBP)Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films, which is known be sensitive to NO$_2$ gab. A response of these films to the NO$_2$ gab was studied. A surface pleasure of 25mN/m was obtained as a proper one for a film deposition. A deposited film status was identified with Uv/visible absorption spectra, ellipsometry measurements, and current-voltage(I-Y) characteristics. The NO$_2$ gas response experiments under 200ppm conducentration show that there are increment of electrical conductivity by 12 times, 5 seconds of response time, and 5 seconds of response time, and 90 seconds of recovery time.
