Reversible MOF-Based Sensors for the Electrical Detection of Iodine Gas
Abstract
Iodine detection is crucial for nuclear waste clean-up and first responder activities. For ease of use and durability of response, robust active materials that enable the direct electrical detection of I2 are needed. Herein, a large reversible electrical response is demonstrated as I2 is controllably and repeatedly adsorbed and desorbed from a series of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) MFM-300(X), each possessing a different metal center (X = Al, Fe, In, or Sc) bridged by biphenyl-3,3',5,5'-tetracarboxylate linkers. Impedance spectroscopy is used to evaluate how the different metal centers influence the electrical response upon cycling of I2 gas, ranging from 10× to 106× decrease in resistance upon I2 adsorption in air. This large variation in electrical response is attributed not only to the differing structural characteristics of the MOFs but also to the differing MOF morphologies and how this influences the degree of reversibility of I2 adsorption. Interestingly, MFM-300(Al) and MFM-300(In) displayed the largest changes in resistance (up to 106×) yet lost much of their adsorption capacity after five I2 adsorption cycles in air. On the other hand, MFM-300(Fe) and MFM-300(Sc) revealed more moderate changes in resistance (10–100×), maintaining most of their original adsorption capacity after five cycles. This work demonstrates how changesmore »

This work demonstrates how changes in MOFs can profoundly affect the magnitude and reversibility of the electrical response of sensor materials. Tuning both the intrinsic (resistivity and adsorption capacity) and extrinsic (surface area and particle morphology) properties is necessary to develop highly reversible, large signal-generating MOF materials for direct electrical readout for I2 sensing.},
