IEEE SENSORS JOURNAL, VOL. 11, NO. 1, JANUARY 2011 137 A  Optical Sensor and Logic Actuator Using Schiff Base Functionalized Mesoporous Material Shichao Wang, Guangwen Men, Ying Wang, Liyan Zhao, Qiufei Hou, and Shimei Jiang Abstract— One simple binaphthyl-bridged salicylidene Schiff hybrid sensors with receptors assembled on the solid support base (2,2’-bis(3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)-1,1’-bi- are relatively rare [3]. naphthyl (BCHB)) was successfully synthesised and modified into On the other hand, since the first AND operator was designed the channel of mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15, which was functionalized with 3-aminapropyltriethoxysilane, through the by de Silva and coworkers in 1993 [4], molecular logic gates, hydrogen bond assembly. Detailed characterizations such as X-ray harnessing the ablities of molecules to process information at diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform the nanoscale level, have attracted more and more attention. infrared spectroscopy, and UV-vis diffuse-reflectance spectra Many inspirational examples of simple logic functions such indicate that the hexagonally ordered mesoporous structure as AND, OR, NOT, and XOR have been reported extensively has been retained in good condition, and this organic/inorganic hybrid material exhibits different photochemical property from within the past decade. Furthermore, monomolecular-based ligand itself and selective recognition of  among other metal particular integrated combinatorial circuits such as INHIBIT ions. Furthermore, stimulated by the inputs of  and UV
