    Hierarchically Structured Nanoporous Poly(Ionic Liquid) Membranes: Facile Preparation and Application in Fiber-Optic pH Sensing

    No full text
    Nanoporous polyelectrolyte membranes with hierarchical and unique pore architectures can be readily made via electrostatic complexation between imidazolium-based poly­(ionic liquid)­s and poly­(acrylic acid) in a variety of morphologies. Coating the membrane onto the surface of an optical fiber resulted in a device with high pH-sensing performance in terms of the response rate and the sensitivity, due to the charge and porous nature of the membrane layer
