It is well known that the metallophthalocyanine (MPcs) are sensitive to toxic gaseous molecules such as $NO_2$ and also chemically and thermally stable. Therefore, lots of MPcs are studied for 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 spectrascopy and ellipsometry. Transfer condition, film characterization, and preliminary results of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics of these films exposed to $NO_2$ gas as a function of film thickness will be discussed.

Chemical sensors are used in various industrial facilities such high-risk and prevent the leakage of substances, important in life and environmental protection and the safe use of industry, used for management. In particular, high-temperature environments such as power generation equipment of the rotating part due to leakage generated by the various oil, power plants Shut Down, fire, work environment (exposure to various chemical solution and gas leak) and various water, air and soil pollution causes. Thus, over the long term through various channels such as crops and groundwater contamination caused by the slow, serious adverse effect on the ecosystem. In this paper, synthetic lube oil and high pressure hydraulic fluid leakage and immediately detect a new Printed Electronic implementation of technology-based film-type sensors, and its performance test. Thus, industrial accidents and environmental pollution and for early detection of problems, large accidents can be prevented. Experimental results of the synthetic lube oil and high pressure hydraulic fluid solution after the contact time depending on the experiment and the oil solution of the sensor material of the conductive porous PE resistance value by a chemical reaction could be confirmed that rapid increase. Also implemented in the film-type oil sensor electrical resistance change over time of the reaction rate and the synthetic lube oil is about 2 minutes or less, the high pressure hydraulic fluid is less than about 1 minute was. Therefore, more high-pressure hydraulic fluid such as a low volatility synthetic lube oils are the resistance change and the reaction rate was confirmed to be the slowest.

The accurate detection of environmental and biomarker gas species has attracted increasing attention due to their broad applications, such as air quality monitoring, disease diagnosis, and explosive chemicals detection. To accurately detect target gas species using chemiresistive gas sensors, using nanocatalysts on semiconducting metal oxides (SMOs) is considered the most promising approach. This review summarizes recent studies on methods for nanocatalysts functionalization on SMOs to achieve the highly selective gas sensors. To this end, we discuss various nanocatalyst decorated metal oxide-based chemiresistive gas sensors and provide an insight to construct highly accurate gas sensors.

It is well known that the metallo- phthalocyanine (MPcs) are sensitive to toxic gaseous molecules such as $NO_2$ and also chemically and thermally stable, Therefore, lots of MPcs have been studied for the potential chemical sensor for $NO_2$ gas using quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) or electrical conductivity. In this study, ultra-thin films of octa(2-ethylhexyloxy)copper-phthalocyanine were prepared by Langmuir-Blodgett method and characterized by using UV-VIS absortion spectroscopy and ellipsometry. Transfer condition, and characterization of LB films were investigated and preliminary results of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics of these films exposed to $NO_2$ gas as a function of film thickness and temperature were discussed.

The number of large and complex buildings is growing and they are usually concentrated in metropolitan cities. There is a possibility in such buildings that a small accident can expand to a massive disaster since their scale and complexity. To deal with this issue, a research on gas sensors which can detect multiple gases and early-warning systems has been conducted. Proper criteria or standards are necessary for effective application and operation of such sensor-based disaster monitoring system. In this study, we have proposed the alarm criteria of concentration of hazardous gases for the detection and the alarm release. For each alarm level, systematic disaster response plans consist of responsive actions and information delivery have been prepared. These disaster monitoring criteria can help the detection of hazardous gas-related disaster in the early stage of accident and the provision of appropriate emergency responses.

The cytidine bio-sensors have been constructed by immobilizing the bacterium Proteus mirabilis and organelle on an ammonia gas sensor. The bacterial sensor was investigated for the effects of pH, temperature, buffer solution, bacterial amounts, interferences and lifetime. The bacterial sensor had linearity in the range of 5.0 ${\times}$ 10$^{-4}$M ∼ 1.0 ${times}$ 10$^{-2}$M cytidine with a slope of 56 mV/decade at pH 7.8, 30$^{\circ}C$ and 3 mg in 1.0 M phosphate buffer solution. This bacterial sensor was compared with it's organelle sensor.

산소이온 전도체로 잘 알려진 Yttira-Stabilizd Ziroconia(TSZ)는 연료전지, oxygen pumps, chemical gas sensor 등 다양한 electrochemical divices에 이용되는 고체 전해질의 하나이다. 특히 YSZ는 oxygen 및 oxygen과 평형상태에 있는 gas들을 검출하는 sensor의 electrolyte로서 가장 많이 쓰이고 있다. 현재 상용화되어 있는 YSZ Sensor는 전통적인 bulk 형태의 ceramic으로 제작된 것으로 충분한 ionic conductivity를 얻기 위해서는 $600^{\circ}C$이상의 operating temperature를 필요로 하나 YSZ를 박막으로 제조시 낮은 operating temperature를 뿐만 아니라 sensor의 소형화, 낮은 ohmic loss 및 다양한 응용이 가능한 장점을 가질 수 있다. 본 실험에서는 산소 이온 전도체로서 8mol%-YSZ 고체전해질을 RF-magnetron bias sputtering 법을 이용하여 증착하였다. 제조된 YSZ 박막을 이용한 산소감응 센서셀 구조는 SiO2/Ni-NiO/Pt/YSZ/Pt-기판이다. 센서셀의 정상상태에서의 기전력(electromotive force ; EMF)을 산소분압(Po:1.013$\times$103Ta ~1.013$\times$105Pa)과 측정온도(30$0^{\circ}C$~$700^{\circ}C$)를 변화시키며 측정하였다. 이론적인 기전력과 측정값 사이의 편차는 Po:1.565$\times$104Pa 이하의 산소분압에서는 컸지만 이 이상의 분압에서는 이론치에 근접한 값을 가졌다. 증착한 YSZ와 Ni-NiO 박막의 구조는 X-ray diffractometer(XRD)를 이용하여 결정구조를 알아 보았고, TSZ 박막의 표면 morphology 관찰은 Scanning electron microscopy(SEM) 이용하였다. 박막의 조성분석은 X-ray energy dispersive analysis(EDX)을 사용하였다.

This study was carried out to develop the realtime evaluation system of $NH_3$ absorption efficiency with gas sensors which were installed on the inlet and outlet of lab-scale scrubber system. The $NH_3$ absorption amount, calculated by sensor outcomes for 3 hr, 6 hr, and 12 hr of absorption process, was compared with the results analysed by Indo-phenol method for the absorption solution. Even though the difference between two methods was about 20%, the correlation coefficient between the two results was very high, more than 0.99. In addition, we could find very good correlation between pH, absorption amount and reaction time. Also we could find out the breakthrough time in the middle of absorption process. With more diverse experiment in the future, we can make gas sensor system for the realtime evaluation of the odor and/or air pollution treatment efficiency.

Fire detection system is used for detection and alarm-generation of danger in case of fire. Most fire detection systems being used these days often malfunction from false positive and false negative errors. To improve detection reliability, an integrated fire detection algorithm using multi-senor information of heat, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors is suggested, then built and tested using the LabVIEW environment. Simulated using sensor measurement data offered by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), possibility of reducing false positive and false negative errors is verified.
