摘要: In this short communication we report a sensor for divalent mercuric (Hg2+) ions that we constructed from a perylene bisimide (PBI)-based organic thin film transistor. We improved the performance of the n-channel device by positioning N,N'-dioctyl-3,4,9,10-perylenedicarboximide between the dielectric and the active layer (PSI), increasing the electron mobility (mu) from 0.002 to 0.25 +/- 0.04 cm(2) V-1 s(-1) and enhancing the on/off ratio (I-on/I-off) by two orders of magnitude (from 102 to 104). Based on a "thymine-Hg2+-thymine" mechanism and monitoring the shift in the threshold voltage (V-th), we used this transistor to discriminate Hg2+ ions from mixed ion solutions and it extended to different concentration Hg2+ solutions (from 50 to 350 mu M). By monitoring the shifts in drain current (I-DS) and V-th, we also used this bilayer device as a sensor for cysteine, a thiol-containing amino acid; the selective detection of cysteine was accompanied by a red shift in the fluorescence maximum of PBI, from 532 to 537 nm.
