Laser-Induced Carbon-Based Smart Flexible Sensor Array for Multiflavors Detection
Abstract
We report a flexible sensor array electronic tongue system that is fabricated on a polymer substrate by the laser direct writing process for multiflavor detection. Electronic tongue is a sensing system that is applied to detect different elements with the same sensor array. By analyzing responses from different measurement units, it enables a cross-sensitivity, namely, the ability of the system to responding to a range of different analytes in solution without specific functionalization of sensors. In this article, a six-unit sensing array system was fabricated by a laser direct writing process. Sensing units were introduced on a flexible polyamide surface. A high surface–volume ratio porous carbon structure was created by a laser-induced carbonization process, which provides stable conductive carbon electrodes with high sensitivity. Different surface treatments, such as gold plating, reduced-graphene oxide coating, and polyaniline coating, were accomplished for different measurement units. By applying principal component analysis, this sensing system shows a promising result for the detection of multiple flavors. The detection limit for each element is about 0.1 mM for NaCl and sugar solutions. Also, it is able to detect 10–4 times diluted commercial table vinegar solution, which originally contains 5% acetic acid. The detection limit is theoretically lowermore »

The detection limit is theoretically lower than the human threshold of 10 mM for NaCl and sugar. Besides, the sensing system shows a high sensitivity and selectivity for mixed elements. Here, by mapping the data points, the sensor system could detect flavor combinations and provide a reliable prediction of analyte concentration ratios.},
