Johnson, Kai C. C., Mendez, Francisco, Serpe, Michael J.
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgel-based etalons have been shown to have visible color and unique spectral properties, which both depend on solution temperature and pH. In this investigation, pNIPAm-co-AAc microgel-based etalons were fabricated on the Au...

Microgel-based etalon coated quartz crystal microbalances for detecting solution pH: The effect of Au overlayer thickness
Download2013-01-01
Islam, Molla R., Johnson, Kai C. C., Serpe, Michael J.
Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-co-acrylic acid (pNIPAm-co-AAc) microgels were “painted” on the Au electrode of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Another Au layer (overlayer) was subsequently deposited on the microgel layer. This structure is known as a microgel-based etalon. These devices have...
