The influence of nature of dopants( organic and inorganic) and process variation on the room temperature electrical conductivity and on ammonia vapour sensing performance (response percentage and response time) has been investigated. The synthesized samples have been structurally characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. Regardless of type of dopants, polymerization produces nanospheres of PANI and electrodeposition leads to formation of nanorod-like structures. Among all the synthesized samples, the organic doped electrodeposited sample exhibits highest conductivity. The conductivity of the prepared samples ware measured as a function of time after exposure to ammonia indicating that the polymerized samples (both for organic and inorganic dopants) exhibit fastest response (least response time), while the electrodeposited samples show sluggish response. Thus response percentages of different samples are found to depend on the nanostructures which vary with the nature of dopants and process of preparation.
