Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are prevalent in daily life, from the lab environment to industrial applications, providing tremendous functionality but also posing significant health risk. Moreover, individual VOCs have individual risks associated with them, making classification and sensing of a broad range of VOCs important. This work details the application of electrochemically dealloyed nanoporous gold (NPG) as a VOC sensor through measurements of the complex electrical frequency response of NPG. By leveraging the effects of adsorption and capillary condensation on the electrical properties of NPG itself, classification and regression is possible. Due to the complex nonlinearities, classification and regression are done through the use of a convolutional neural network. This work also establishes key strategies for improving the performance of NPG, both in sensitivity and selectivity. This is achieved by tuning the electrochemical dealloying process through manipulations of the starting alloy and through functionalization with 1-dodecanethiol.
