An electronic odor sensor includes first and second amplifiers, a biasing network, and a device connected to receive the output signals from the first and second amplifiers. The device is configured to correlate the received output signals to the presence or absence of an odor. The first and second amplifiers have respective first and second organic semiconductor layers and are configured to produce output signals responsive to the conductivities of their respective organic semiconductor layers. The conductivities of the organic semiconductor layers are responsive to voltages applied to associated ones of the amplifiers and to the presence of the odor. The biasing network applies the voltages to the amplifiers.

Circuits include at least one-odor sensitive organic transistor having a conduction channel whose conductivity changes in response to certain odors. The organic transistors are interconnected to increase their response to selected odor signals. The organic transistors may be interconnected to form a ring oscillator whose frequency of oscillation changes in response to an odor signal and in which the alternating signal applied to the gate electrodes of the organic transistors enhances their recovery and reduces their drift.
