Abstract | For most “simple” analytes (e.g. oxygen), the actual sensing element of optochemical sensors consists of a luminescent dye embedded in a polymeric matrix whose luminescence intensity and decay time correlates with the analyte concentration. The response characteristics of these sensors are limited by the time requirement for diffusion and equilibration of the analyte in the bulk of the matrix material. Traditionally, the sensor formulation is cast onto a substrate as a compact layer. Thin layers result in good response speed but poor signal intensity and signal-to-noise ratio, respectively. By means of electrospinning, many polymers can be processed to nanofibers, resulting in a highly-porous textile-like layer with high surface-to-volume ratio and superb analyte accessibility. Doped with fluorescent dyes, such fiber layers are well suited for fast sensing applications where the response time is a critical issue. It was shown that by electrospinning of a typical oxygen sensor formulation (PtTFPP immobilized in polystyrene), that the response time $t_{90}$ can be accelerated from several seconds to less than 40ms at comparable general sensor performance. This work focuses on the long-term operational stability of such nanofiber based optical sensors. No pronounced tendency for degradation could be observed in long-term stress tests. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
