ABSTRACTDevelopment of a sensor capable of selective detection of specific nerve agents is imperative in today’s atmosphere of terrorism. The sensor needs to be inexpensive, portable, reliable, absent of false positives and available to all military and first responders. By utilizing the techniques of molecular imprinting, combinatorial chemistry, silica sol-gel synthesis and lanthanide luminescence, a sensor for the detection of the hydrolysis product of the nerve agent soman is being developed. There are many parameters that require investigation in order for the sensor to become a reality. These parameters include 1) the selection of a chelate that can bind to the lanthanide and anchor the nerve agent simulant during the formation of the molecularly imprinted polymer, 2) the determination of the environment best suited for this complex formation, 3) the formation, as well as modification of the silica sol-gel for molecular imprinting to take place, and 4) the proper quantity and ratios of monomers used to create the three dimensional imprint. Key to the success of optimizing these parameters is the development of a combinatorial assay that allows for the synthesis and testing of tens of thousands of combinations of parameters. Work on the development of the combinatorial assay has lead to a method of preparing thin film polymers capable of analyzing the presence of nerve agent simulants. Current work is underway to validate the combinatorial assay and to synthesize and evaluate a library of sensor materials selective for nerve agents.

AbstractReal 3-D sub-νm lithography was performed with two-photon polymerization (2PP) using inorganic-organic hybrid polymer (ORMOCER®) resins. The hybrid polymers were synthesized by hydrolysis/polycondensation reactions (modified sol-gel synthesis) which allows one to tailor their material properties towards the respective applications, i.e., dielectrics, optics or passivation. Due to their photosensitive organic functionalities, ORMOCER®s can be patterned by conventional photo-lithography as well as by femtosecond laser pulses at 780 nm. This results in polymerized (solid) structures where the non-polymerized parts can be removed by conventional developers.ORMOCER® structures as small as 200 nm or even below were generated by 2PP of the resins using femtosecond laser pulses. It is demonstrated that ORMOCER®s have the potential to be used in components or devices built up by nm-scale structures such as, e.g., photonic crystals. Aspects of the materials in conjunction to the applied technology are discussed.

Fluorescent molecularly imprinted polymer (FMIP) gains great attention in many fields due to their low cost, good biocompatibility and low toxicity. Here, a high-performance FMIP was prepared based on the autocatalytic silica sol–gel reaction.

In this study, an aqueous sol-gel synthesis method and subsequent dip-coating technique were applied for the preparation of yttrium iron garnet (YIG), yttrium iron perovskite (YIP), and terbium iron perovskite (TIP) bulk and thin films. The monophasic highly crystalline different iron ferrite powders have been synthesized using this simple aqueous sol-gel process displaying the suitability of the method. In the next step, the same sol-gel solution was used for the fabrication of coatings on monocrystalline silicon (100) using a dip-coating procedure. This resulted, likely due to substrate surface influence, in all coatings having mixed phases of both garnet and perovskite. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis of the precursor gels was carried out. All the samples were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis. The coatings were also investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Magnetic measurements were also carried out.
