Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was experimentally confirmed that the electrical conductivity of the thin film is changed by the adsorption of molecules on the CNT-CNT interface coated on the substrate, which affects the dielectric constant in the vicinity. We observed how the thickness of the thin film affects. Initially, the CNT network had large voids, and it was thought that the thickness had almost no effect on the molecular scale, but when the thickness was changed, a decrease in sensitivity was observed. We succeeded in obtaining the effective penetration depth of adsorbed molecules by observing the effect by finely changing the thickness of the membrane.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
現在主流のガスセンサーは消費電力が大きく、電源から独立して使用することができない。カーボンナノチューブを利用した超低電力ガスセンサーを実現するためにガス分子吸着による応答メカニズムを解明することを目的とし、成果を得た。このセンサーは吸着ガスの物理特性が影響するため分子種の特定まで将来的に期待できる。ナノスケール界面での電子輸送を明らかにすることはエレクトロニクスや生体医工学の分野への波及・貢献において期待できる。
