Manipulating Porous Matter
Despite the enormous potential of gas sensors in health, safety, and environmental applications, current technologies fall short in terms of selectivity and miniaturization for everyday use. Our latest work, now published in Nature Communications, tackles this challenge by integrating nanoporous materials that distinguish gases based on how quickly they travel through the pores. For the first time, we introduce the kinetic selectivity achievable in nanoporous crystals into the domain of chemical sensors. With just one sensor, we can differentiate and quantify ppm-level VOC mixtures, even under high humidity, outperforming a commercial electronic nose. This novel platform technology opens the door to a wide range of VOC applications. Read our work here!
