Photoluminescent Polymetalloles As Chemical Sensors

View page
US Patent:
7482168, Jan 27, 2009
Filed:
Sep 14, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/244053
Inventors:
Michael J. Sailor - La Jolla CA, US
William C Trogler - Del Mar CA, US
Honglae Sohn - Gwangju, KR
Rebecca M. Calhoun - Austin TX, US
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/00
G01N 21/76
US Classification:
436172, 436106
Abstract:
A method to develop inexpensive inorganic polymeric sensors that can provide a sensitivity and selectivity for explosive nitroaromatic compounds. Selectivity is provided by the arrays of 12 different reactive fluorescent sensors to mimic the human olfactory system. The sensors are based on photoluminescence quenching of polymers containing metalloid-metalloid backbones such as Si—Si, Si—Ge, or Ge—Ge. The sensor employs a thin film of photoluminescent copolymers, which is stable in air, water, acids, common organic solvents, and even seawater containing bioorganisms. The detection method involves measurement of the quenching of photoluminescence of the polysilole by the analyte.

William C. Trogler - Del Mar CA, US
Forest Bohrer - San Diego CA, US
Andrew C. Kummel - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
G01N 27/04

Abstract:
Sensors, sensing systems and sensing methods of the invention provide for detection of peroxides, including for example, vapor-phase HOand organic peroxides such as di-tert-butyl peroxide. A sensor and sensing method of the invention uses at least two phthalocyanines, one of which exhibits an oxidation reaction with peroxides and the other of which exhibits a reduction reaction with peroxides. A peroxide is readily identified by a sensor of the invention when one of the at least two phthalocyanines exhibits increased resistance to current flow and the other of the at least two phthalocyanines exhibits decreased resistance to current flow.

US Patent:
8384409, Feb 26, 2013
Filed:
May 5, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/597976
Inventors:
Andrew C. Kummel - San Diego CA, US
William C. Trogler - Del Mar CA, US
Thomas Gredig - Huntington Beach CA, US
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
G01R 31/02
US Classification:
32476201, 32476209, 257 40
Abstract:
An embodiment of the invention is an organic thin film transistor chemical sensor. The sensor includes a substrate. A gate electrode is isolated from drain and source electrodes by gate dielectric. An organic ultra-thin semiconductor thin film is arranged with respect to the gate, source and drain electrodes to act as a conduction channel in response to appropriate gate, source and drain potentials. The organic ultra-thin film is permeable to a chemical analyte of interest and consists of one or a few atomic or molecular monolayers of material. An example sensor array system includes a plurality of sensors of the invention. In a preferred embodiment, a sensor chip having a plurality of sensors is mounted in a socket, for example by wire bonding. The socket provides thermal and electrical interference isolation for the sensor chip from associated sensing circuitry that is mounted on a common substrate, such as a PCB (printed circuit board). A method of operating an organic thin film transistor chemical sensor exposes the sensor to a suspected analyte.

US Patent:
8557595, Oct 15, 2013
Filed:
Jan 29, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/523104
Inventors:
William C. Trogler - Del Mar CA, US
Jason Sanchez - The Woodlands TX, US
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/22
G01N 21/64
US Classification:
436106, 422425, 422 8206, 422 8207, 422 8208, 436107, 436166, 436167, 436172
Abstract:
The invention provides a sensor for detecting nitrogen containing high explosives. The sensor includes a substrate and a blue-photoluminescent metallofluorene copolymer to be carried on said substrate during testing for nitrogen containing high explosives. The copolymer is preferably a blue-photoluminescent metallofluorene copolymer, and preferably is a vinyl bridged silafluorene copolymer. A method for detecting nitrogen containing high explosives involves exposing a copolymer to an analyte, preferably by spraying the copolymer or otherwise coating the substrate after it has been exposed to analyte and then exciting the copolymer to luminesce. The copolymer is observed for fluorescence quenching, which can be through human or electronic observation. The invention also provides for synthesis of a vinyl bridged silafluorene polymer by providing diethynylmetallofluorene and dihydrosilafluorene as precursors and conducting catalytic hydrosilation of the precursors. In a blue emitting organic light emitting diode of the invention, an emitting layer is blue-photoluminescent metallofluorene copolymer.
