Abstract

The aims of this project to study design transparent conductive carbon nanotubes / binder hybrid thin film of conjugated polymer and polyelectrolyte using single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) network films by loaded in software CST. The development of this gas sensor able to detect the food that is not in a good condition. Furthermore the use of carbon nanotube as the main material because the properties of the carbon nanotubes which has the most extremely good in thermal conductivity. Furthermore carbon nanotube also is a good gas absorber since it has a smaller volume to ratio. To construct or to design this gas sensor, using the CST software by consider each of material of the gas sensor which are the copper, silicon oxide and carbon nanotubes. This gas sensor consists of three layer of sensor. The bottom layer which is the copper layer with 0.035mm thickness. Meanwhile the second layer act as insulator which electrically insulating with SiO (silicon oxide) layer which lossly in characteristics. Beside this second layer consists of a printed RLC circuit. The third layer which is the top layer is the layer of the carbon nanotube. The printed RLC circuit is design in the ADS software, construct the RLC circuit, by fixed the value of inductor able to design the suitable RLC fir this gas sensor. With this gas sensor user able to detect food either it is in good condition or not. Furthermore the new invention for material carbon nanotubes which is low cost able to produce a product such as this gas sensor.
