Zeolitic imidazolate framework-coupled resonators for enhanced gas detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work presents for the first time a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-coupled resonant gas sensor whose sensitivity shows an improvement up to 78 times over bare silicon resonant sensors with identical dimensions. ZIFs are among the highest surface area material used for resonant-based sensing. We utilize high surface area-to-volume ratios of ZIFs to demonstrate how a microresonator coupled with ZIF crystals can provide high sensitivity to chemical vapors.

We introduce for the first time a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-coupled resonant gas sensor whose sensitivity shows an improvement up to 78 times over silicon resonant sensors with identical dimensions while additionally utilizing the inherently selective adsorption properties of ZIFs. In order to achieve high sensitivities, a resonator needs to have a high surface-to-volume ratio. In th...
متن کاملPorous Proton Exchange Membrane Based Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (ZIF-8)
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are emerging material class for the past few years due to its tailorability characteristics for various applications. However, the research and development (R&D) of MOFs is still scarce for fuel cell system. This may be due to the several difficulties faced in selecting a good MOFs-based electrolyte, which consequently affects both proton conduction and methanol ...
متن کاملMechanochemical dry conversion of zinc oxide to zeolitic imidazolate framework.
Mechanochemical dry conversion that only uses zinc oxide and an imidazole ligand proved to be effective and reliable for fabrication of a zeolitic imidazolate framework with a polycrystalline grain boundary and a core-shell structure. The zinc oxide crystals are converted into a zeolitic imidazolate framework to a depth of approx. 10 nm below the surface.
