Gas sensors based on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) coated with ZnO nanorods were developed for detection of NH3 at room temperature. Vertically well-aligned ZnO nanorods were synthesized by a novel wet chemical route at a low temperature of 90 °C, which was used to grow the ZnO nanorods directly on the QCM for the gas sensor application. The morphology of the ZnO nanorods was examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The diameter and length of the nanorods were 100 nm and 3 μm, respectively. The QCM coated with the ZnO nanorods gas sensor showed excellent performance to NH3 gas. The frequency shift (Δf) to 50 ppm NH3 at room temperature was about 9.1 Hz. It was found that the response and recovery times were varied with the ammonia concentration. The fabricated gas sensors showed good reproducibility and high stability. Moreover, the sensor showed a high selectivity to ammoniac gas over liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and carbon dioxide (CO2). 相似文献

We report the synthesis of flowerlike ZnO nanostructure using a facile hydrothermal process, and the investigation on the ammonia (NH3)-sensing properties of the pure and palladium (Pd)-sensitized flowerlike ZnO nanostructure. The phase purity, morphology, and structure of the pure and Pd-sensitized ZnO nanostructure are investigated. The characterized results reveal that the flowerlike ZnO has a wurtzite structure and is composed of numerous aggregated single-crystalline ZnO nanorods with a diameter of about 60 nm. Having fabricated gas sensors based on the pure and Pd-sensitized flowerlike ZnO, we find that the Pd-sensitized sensor exhibits a response of 45.7-50 ppm NH3 at 210 °C, which is about 8 times higher than that of pure ZnO at the optimal operating temperature of 350 °C. The enhanced NH3-sensing performance demonstrates that the significant decrease in optimal operating temperature and the distinct increase in response are attributed to the sensitization effect of Pd. 相似文献

LPG sensing properties of ZnO films prepared by spray pyrolysis method: Effect of molarity of precursor solution 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Nanocrystalline ZnO films were deposited onto glass substrates by spray pyrolysis of zinc nitrate solutions and used as a liquid petroleum gas (LPG) sensor. The dependence of the LPG sensing properties on the molar concentration of zinc nitrate solutions was investigated. The ZnO films were oriented along (0 0 2) with the hexagonal crystal structure. The grain size and grain density increased with an increase in molar concentration of zinc nitrate solutions. The gas sensing properties for LPG of the ZnO films for LPG with different grain sizes were measured at different temperatures. The maximum sensitivity of 43% at the operation temperature of 673 K was found for the ZnO film prepared by spraying a 0.1 M solution. The ZnO thin films exhibited good sensitivity and rapid response–recovery characteristics to LPG. Further, it has been shown the gas sensitivity of the ZnO gas sensor depends upon its grain size. 相似文献

We explore the growth of vertically aligned carbon nanofibers by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, using lithographically defined Ni catalyst seeds on TiN. TiN is selected for being an electrically conducting diffusion barrier suitable for the realization of electronic devices. We show that the rate of Ni diffusion correlates to both the level of oxygen content in the TiN film and to the film resistivity. The synthesis of the nanofibers was characterized using electron microscopy with an emphasis on three growth parameters: substrate temperature, plasma power, and chamber pressure. We propose that a catalyst surface free from carbon deposits throughout the process will induce diffusion-limited growth. The growth will shift towards a supply-limited process when the balance between acetylene, as the effective carbon bearing gas, and atomic hydrogen, as the main etching agent, is skewed in favor of acetylene. This determines whether the dominating growth mode will be vertically aligned ‘tip-type’ or disordered ‘base-type’, by affecting the competition between the formation of the first graphitic sheets on the catalyst surface and at the catalyst-substrate interface. 相似文献

We present the fabrication and characterization of new type of flexible gas sensors, composed mainly of a bottom ZnO conductive layer on metal foil, vertically aligned ZnO nanorod channel, and graphene-based top conductive electrode. Multiple cycling tests demonstrated the ZnO nanorods (NRs) and graphene (Gr) hybrid architectures accommodated the flexural deformation without mechanical or electrical failure for bending radius below 0.8 cm under the repeated bending and releasing up to 100 times. In addition, the hybrid architectures fabricated on glass substrate showed good optical transmittance larger than ∼70% for visible light, indicating potential application in transparent devices. Furthermore, our gas sensors demonstrated the ppm level detection of ethanol gas vapor with the sensitivity (resistance in air/resistance in target gas) as high as ∼9 for 10 ppm ethanol. 相似文献

Properties of humidity sensing ZnO nanorods-base sensor fabricated by screen-printing 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The humidity sensitive characteristics of a sensor fabricated from flower-like ZnO nanorods by screen-printing on a ceramic substrate with Ag–Pd interdigital electrodes have been investigated. The sensor shows high humidity sensitivity, rapid response and recovery, small hysteresis, and good stability. It is found that the impedance of the sensor decreases by about five orders of magnitude with increasing relative humidity (RH) from 11 to 95%. The response and recovery time of the sensor is about 5 and 10 s, respectively. These results indicate that the flower-like ZnO nanorods can be used in fabricating high-performance humidity sensors. 相似文献

Nanoparticle-decorated ZnO microdisks showing a hierarchical structure were successfully synthesized through a citric acid-assisted hydrothermal process. The ZnO microdisks had a hexagonal wurtzite structure with high crystallinity. Sensors based on these microdisks exhibited high response values, fast response-recovery, good selectivity and long-term stability to 1-4000 ppm acetylene at 420 °C. In addition, even 1 ppm acetylene can be detected with high response (S = 7.9). The hierarchical structure can facilitate to fix the ZnO nanoparticles leading to a less aggregated configuration, which is expected to contribute much to the excellent acetylene sensing properties at high temperatures. 相似文献

为研究金属离子对金属氧化物半导体的表面敏化作用,以均匀沉淀法制备了ZnO纳米颗粒,并通过金属离子表面微滴注以及二次退火的方法制备出金属离子表面修饰的平面型ZnO气体传感器阵列。并以乙醚蒸汽为目标气体,进行气敏性能测试。发现大部分传感器对乙醚响应性很好,并且经过表面修饰,ZnO的乙醚敏感性能大多得到提升。特别地,Mg2+表面修饰的ZnO膜层展现了最优的气敏性能。X射线光电子能谱和光致发光谱证实,经过Mg2+表面修饰之后,氧空位缺陷浓度明显增加,并且表面羟基基团的数量显著减少,二者的协同作用构成了Mg2+表面修饰ZnO的敏化机制。 相似文献

Pure and Co-doped (0.3 wt%, 0.5 wt%, and 1 wt%) ZnO nanofibers are synthesized by an electrospinning method and followed by calcination. The as-synthesized nanofibers are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. Comparing with pure ZnO nanofibers, Co-doped nanofibers exhibit improved acetone sensing properties at 360 °C. The response of 0.5 wt% Co-doped ZnO nanofibers to 100 ppm acetone is about 16, which is 3.5 times larger than that of pure nanofibers (about 4.4). The response and recovery times of 0.5 wt% Co-doped ZnO nanofibers to 100 ppm acetone are about 6 and 4 s, respectively. Moreover, Co-doped ZnO nanofibers can successfully distinguish acetone and ethanol/methanol, even in a complicated ambience. The high response and quick response/recovery are based on the one-dimensional nanostructure of ZnO nanofibers combining with the Co-doping effect. The selectivity is explained by the different optimized operating temperatures of Co-doped ZnO nanofibers to different gases. 相似文献

Quantum size ZnO crystals have been synthesized successfully by a room temperature sol-gel process. Oleic acid (OA) has been used as capping agent to control the particle size of ZnO. The crystal structure and size of the ZnO are characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The XRD results show the as-synthesized ZnO has hexagonal wurtzite structure and the average crystallite size is 5.7 nm which is little less than TEM result. It is testified by photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectra that the quantum size ZnO keeps the crystal structure of the bulk ZnO and possesses more surface defects. The quantum size ZnO has the highest response of 280 to NO2 and the highest selectivity of 31 and 49 corresponding to CO and CH4 at operating temperature of 290 °C. The effect of calcination temperatures on sensing property and transient response of the ZnO sensor are also investigated. 相似文献

A method for low-temperature synthesis of a mixture of high-density ZnO nanoflakes and nanowires was developed to produce low-cost and high-efficiency gas sensors with ZnO nanostructures. ZnO nanoflakes and nanowires were grown on glass substrates by the RF sputter deposition of Zn particles and localized oxidation at a low temperature of 300 °C. The synthesized ZnO nanoflakes and nanowires were polycrystalline and had nanometer dimensions, as revealed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) measuring. A gas sensor based on the mixture of ZnO nanoflakes/nanowires responded rapidly and sensitively to ethanol. The sensing properties of the ZnO nanostructure sensor were approximately 72% for 50 ppm ethanol gas at an operating temperature of 100 °C. The response to 10 ppm of ethanol gas was 42% at the same temperature. 相似文献

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a well-known semiconducting multifunctional material wherein properties right from the morphology to gas sensitivity can be tailor-made by doping or surface modification. Aluminum (Al)-incorporated porous zinc oxide (Al:ZnO) exhibits good response towards NO2 at low-operating temperature. The NO2 gas concentration as low as 20 ppm exhibits S = 17% for 5 wt.% Al-incorporated ZnO. The NO2 response increases with operating temperature and concentration and reaches to its maximum at 300 °C without any interference from other gases such as SO3, HCl, LPG and alcohol. Physico-chemical characterization likes differential thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DTA) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and diffused reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) have been used to understand the sensing behavior for pure and Al-incorporated ZnO. The TG-DTA depicts formation of ZnO phase at 287 °C. The EPR study reveals distinct variation for O− (g = 2.003) and Zn interstitial (g = 1.98) defect sites in pure and Al:ZnO. The DRS studies elucidate signature of adsorbed NOx species in aluminium-incorporated zinc oxide indicating its tendency to adsorb these species even at low temperatures. This paper is an attempt to correlate the gas sensing behavior with the physico-chemical studies such as EPR and DRS. 相似文献

Polypyrrole thin films were synthesized in situ by chemical polymerization. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed formation of polypyrrole. The morphological studies by scanning electron microscopy showed formation of uniform granular structure with average grain size of 0.6 μm. The film composition was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy for chemical composition in polypyrrole film. These films were investigated for their sensing behaviour towards NH3 and NO at room temperature. It has been observed that these films are selective for NH3 and the sensitivity exhibited a linear response in range of 4-80 ppm. 相似文献
