An interdigitated gate electrode field effect transistor (IGE-FET) coupled to an electron beam evaporated copper phthalocyanine thin film was used to selectively detect part-per-billion concentration levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO{sub 2}) and diisopropyl methylphosphonate (DIMP). The sensor is excited with a voltage pulse, and the time- and frequency-domain responses are measured. The envelopes of the magnitude of the normalized difference frequency spectrums reveal features that unambiguously distinguish NO{sub 2} and DIMP exposures.
