Abstract
In our laboratory, a nano-bio taste sensor based on carbon nanotubes has been developed. However, previous technique cannot separate elements such as CNT random network or electrode surface etc., because of sensor impedance change in fixed frequency. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) revealed CNT taste sensor with two R/C parallel circuits. Experimental complex plane plots were reproduced using a computer simulation program based upon the lumped equivalent circuit approach. It was found that the sensor has two relaxation times, and also that these circuits consist of two elements such as electrode surface and CNT random network.
