Abstract
Compositions comprising an electronically conductive polymer and a metal-organic framework (MOF), and related sensors and methods of sensing analytes, are generally described.
Claims25
A composition, comprising:
- an electronically conductive polymer;
- and
- a plurality of particles homogenously distributed throughout a bulk of the electronically conductive polymer, the plurality of particles comprising a conjugated metal-organic framework (MOF),
- wherein the electronically conductive polymer has the formula [A-B]n, wherein A is an electron acceptor monomeric unit, B is an electron donor monomeric unit, and n is greater than or equal to 2.

A sensor, comprising:
- a first electrode;
- a second electrode;
- and
- a composite region comprising:
- (i) an electronically conductive polymer;
- and (ii) an electronically conductive metal-organic framework (MOF),
- wherein the composite region is configured to adsorb an analyte at a temperature greater than or equal to 10° C. and less than or equal to 30° C., and wherein adsorption of the analyte within the composite region causes a detectable change in an electronic characteristic of the sensor.
