Abstract

An
oxygen sensitive optical chemical sensor has been developed based on
fluorescence quenching of the meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (H₂TPP)
immobilized in a silicone derivative along with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)
and different ionic liquids (ILs). Emission spectra of the H₂TTP
doped thin film exhibited an increment due to the formation of an associated
complex between H₂TPP and AgNPs. The offered thin films responded to
the oxygen in the direction of quenching with extreme sensitivity. Emission and
decay-time measurements of the H₂TPP in thin solid matrices were
studied in the concentration range of 0-100% p(O₂). Utilization of
the porphyrin dye along with AgNPs and ionic liquid as an additive exhibited
higher oxygen sensitivity with respect to the additive-free forms and resulted
in many advances such as linear response, improvement in sensor dynamics and
extreme sensitivity. Together with additives, the
meso-tetraphenylporphyrin-based composites yielded higher Stern-Volmer constant
(Ksv), faster response time, and larger linear response range when compared
with the additive-free form. The response time of the sensor has been recorded
as 90 s
