Abstract

Abstract: Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Tsuyoshi Minami at the University Tokyo. The image illustrates that despite being fabricated with the same polythiophene material, a water‐gated organic thin‐film transistor is a more sensitive device than a fluorescence sensor chip.

Abstract : " In this study, we employed the competitive coordination of a Cu 2+ ion as a manipulator to achieve highly sensitive detection of the herbicide glyphosate. As shown in the scale of target glyphosate in the cover art, the sensitivity of the WG‐OTFT sensor was higher than that of the fluorescent polymer‐based sensor chip ."
