Abstract An FET-type CO2 sensor using polyethylenimine (PEI) coated single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) is investigated. The sensor has a floating-gate (FG) and a control-gate (CG) formed in an interdigitated form in a horizontal direction. SWNT and PEI are sequentially printed on the platform by inkjet printing process. PEI coating reduces the I-V hysteresis of the FET platform and improves the CO2 sensing properties. Since the sensor has an FG that can store the charge, the threshold voltage of the sensor can be tuned and its calibration is possible. When sensing 2000 ppm of CO2 gas at room temperature, the DC read bias applied to CG showed very low sensitivity and significant drift characteristics. However, by applying a pulse bias, a response of ~16%, a response time of ~80 s, and a recovery time of ~200 s were obtained.
