Design and Development of Heavy Metal Selective Chem-FET Sensors Using Conductive Chelating Polymers

摘要

Thiophene and chelate derivatized thiophenes have been electropolymerized on several different substrates with the aim of developing chem-FET mercury and actinide selective sensors. 1,4,10-trioxa-7,13- diazacyclopentadecane and 4-sulfonic calix[6]arene hydrate are used for detection of mercury and actinyl ions respectively.
