Abstract
This paper presents a chemical microwave flexible sensor based on a resonant electromagnetic transducer in micro-strip technology with poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate -- multi wall carbon nanotubes (PEDOT:PSS-MWCNTs) as sensitive material for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) detection. The results show a high sensitivity to ethanol and toluene vapors on the S parameters of a passive resonator over a large frequency range. It is equal to -1.59 kHz/ppm and -1.45 kHz/ppm for ethanol and toluene vapors respectively. This kind of sensor can be integrated into real-time multi-sensing platform adaptable for the Internet of Things (IoT).
