IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY APPLICATION FOR ANALYZING INFLUENCE OF ESSENTIAL OILS ON COUNDUCTIVE MATERIALS FABRICATED ON PAPER

Abstract

In this work the fabrication of microfluid chips that contains electrode built from different conductive materials on paper surface was described. Used conductive materials are gold, silver, aluminium, conductive electric paint. Different mixture of eucaliptus and peppermint essential oils were injected in chips to provide results of degredable impact on conductive materials fabricated on the paper substrate. Chips characterization and eximantion of variation in electrical parameters were measured by impedance spectroscopy technique. Measurements were done in equidistant time steps. Characterization results were documented in numerous pictures and graphs.
