This kind of sensors can be applicable to sensing the methanol concentration in real-time. When we measured the methanol sensor with 5 nm of Pt dot, we could get 2.00 x 10(-6), 3.06 x 10(-6) and 6.25 x 10(-6) A of electric current value for the methanol concentration of 1, 2 and 3 mole, respectively. The measured voltage was 1 V. To optimize the sensitivity level of Pt dot catalyst electrode. the electrodes were made in H-grid shape. The distance between electrode branches was designed to be 80, 150 and 300 mu m, respectively. When we measured the electric current-voltage characteristics of methanol sensor with 2 M of methanol, it was 3.06 x 10(-6), 2.02 x 10(-6) and 1.50 x 10(-6) A, for 80, 150 and 200 mu m, respectively. Thus it is suggested that more efficient response of methanol sensing is possible when the distance between electrodes is reduced. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
