    A novel structure of metalloporphyrin, namely: 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-porphyrin Fe(III) chloride, was successfully synthesized. UV sensitive structure based on barium stearate functionalized with the novel synthesized porphyrin and carbon nanotubes was obtained. A five monolayers structure was deposited from solution by Langmuir -Blodgett technique onto a ceramic substrate with interdigital platinum electrodes. The complex film shows sensitivity to UV radiation due to the fact that an electron is excited from a Fe d orbital into a porphyrin antibonding π orbital and is moved onto the ligand that is attached, facilitating the charge separation, while the presence of SWCNT activates the transport of the charge carriers
