Abstract
Thin fluid films of discotic nanoclay particles dispersed in water were observed to exhibit anomalous current-voltage (I-V) characteristics at room temperature. The I-V characteristics exhibit a transition from space charge limited conduction to negative differential resistance on crossing a certain bias of 20 V. Here, the maximum current (Imax) found to be around 20 μA and Imax was found to scale with applied pressure (P) following empirical relation Imax ∼ P1/4 indicating that these films can be used as pressure sensors.
