Embodiments of the present disclosure describe sensors and sensing applications based on a composite material comprising an isoporous block copolymer film and a plurality of carbon nanoparticles embedded in the isoporous block copolymer film. Embodiments of the present disclosure further describe composite materials, methods of fabricating the composite materials, methods of using the composite materials, sensors comprising the composite materials, and the like.

Composite materials for sensing applications

The present invention is a structure, method of making and method of use for a novel macroscopic hierarchically structured, nitrogen-doped, nano-porous carbon membrane (HNDCMs) with asymmetric and hierarchical pore architecture that can be produced on a large-scale approach. The unique HNDCM holds great promise as components in separation and advanced carbon devices because they could offer unconventional fluidic transport phenomena on the nanoscale. Overall, the invention set forth herein covers a hierarchically structured, nitrogen-doped carbon membranes and methods of making and using such a membranes.
