Zinc(II) phthalocyanine (Zn(II)Pc) molecule was the rst time prepared onto three different substrates utilizing Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition technique to investigate its vapor sensing abilities and some optical properties. We utilized ve different and well-known techniques to control monolayer quality of Zn(II)Pc LB lm. The obtained the thickness and refractive index values for Zn(II)Pc LB lm with coated at different layers vary from 3.2 to 10.9 nm and from 1.42 to 1.71, respectively. The sensing properties were investigated by exposing the Zn(II)Pc-based mass or optical sensor to some organic vapors. Kinetic results presented that this Zn(II)Pc material is a good candidate as a sensor element with a fast and reversible response for dichloromethane sensing devices.

Zinc(II) phthalocyanine (Zn(II)Pc) molecule was the first time prepared onto three different substrates utilizing Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition technique to investigate its vapor sensing abilities and some optical properties. We utilized five different and well-known techniques to control monolayer quality of Zn(II)Pc LB film. The obtained the thickness and refractive index values for Zn(II)Pc LB film with coated at different layers vary from 3.2 to 10.9 nm and from 1.42 to 1.71, respectively. The sensing properties were investigated by exposing the Zn(II)Pc-based mass or optical sensor to some organic vapors. Kinetic results presented that this Zn(II)Pc material is a good candidate as a sensor element with a fast and reversible response for dichloromethane sensing devices.
