Abstract

Porous Polymer/ceramic films were processed via tape casting. Upon doping with luminescent molecules such as platinum(II) octaethylporphine and [Ru(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)3]C12, the films were used as pressure sensors, yielding a Stern-Volmer constant of A ranging from 0.02 to 0.61. These films also exhibited very fast response times (∼I ms). Tape cast films doped with Rhodamine B were used as temperature sensors under cryogenic conditions. The temperature sensitivity of the doped films increased with increasing Rhodamine B concentration.
