Ammonia sensing properties of two-dimensional tin disulphide/tin oxides (SnS2/SnO2-x) mixed phases
摘要： 2D-SnS2 flakes were synthesized via a wet chemical route and deposited as a thin film onto the Pt-interdigitated contacts of a ceramic substrate with aim to fabricate a conductometric sensor. The 2D-SnS2 sensing film was then annealed "in situ" under controlled conditions at different temperatures up to 400 °C. The morphological, microstructural and electrical properties of the sensing film, before and after the thermal treatment, were characterized by "in situ" techniques. SEM analysis has shown that the 2D flake morphology was maintained after thermal treatments, whereas Raman and EDX analysis have highlighted the partial/total modification of the SnS2 phase towards the SnO2. As a consequence of the formation of 2D-SnS2/SnO2-x mixed phases, a dramatic change of the electrical properties of the sensing film has been also observed. Conductometric gas sensors based on hybrid SnS2-SnO2-x nanoflakes were then obtained by simple self-annealing treatments of 2D-SnS2 film directly on the sensor substrate. The fabricated sensors were tested toward ammonia (NH3) as target gas. Results evidence that increasing the annealing temperature of the 2D-SnS2 sensitive film, the electrical resistance of the sensing layer decreases while the response towards ammonia increases, showing the maximum at an annealing treatment of 250 °C. This behaviour was explained on the basis of the morphological, microstructural and electrical modifications observed, highlighting the role of 2D-SnS2/SnO2-x mixed phases in determining the sensing properties towards ammonia.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE SENSORS - New Delhi, India (2018.10.28-2018.10.31)] 2018 IEEE SENSORS - A Flexible Room Temperature Ammonia Sensor Based on Large Area, Transparent Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Thin Film
摘要： A low-temperature, wet-chemical process for the synthesis of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) films on large area, transparent, flexible substrates were developed and its application to ammonia detection at room temperature were demonstrated. The carboxyl groups were attached in the sidewalls of carbon nanotubes due to wet-chemical process which helps to improve the sensor performance. The transmittance measurement showed that the film is ninety percent transparent to visible spectrum with respect to air. Selectivity measurements were also performed. The sensor responses were same for both the fat and bend film. The present SWCNTs based sensors could potentially be used to develop low cost, flexible, foldable and disposable sensor system for the monitoring of toxic gases like ammonia in environment.

Detection of NH<SUB>3</SUB> Using ZnO Thin Film Sensor Deposited on Si/SiO<SUB>2</SUB> Substrate Derived by RF Magnetron Sputtering
摘要： This paper reports the research results of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin film gas sensor which is able to detect low concentration of ammonia gas (NH3). Pure ZnO layer is deposited on Si/SiO2 substrate at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering technique. Pt micro-heater, platinum resistance thermometer (PRT) and gold electrodes are also fabricated along with ZnO thin film to make a complete NH3 sensor device and the fabrication process is discussed in detail in this manuscript. The deposited ZnO thin film is annealed at different temperatures and the effect of annealing temperature on the properties of ZnO thin film is analyzed by using various characterization techniques such as surface profilometer, XRD, SEM, EDX, etc. A measurement set-up is established for the measurements of various sensor parameters. An operating temperature is optimized for the NH3 gas sensor to enhance the sensitivity of the device. The optimized operating temperature is achieved and measured by Pt heater and PRT, respectively. The measurements are also performed for Pt micro-heater and PRT to calibrate the temperature with respect to heater current. Finally, the gas sensing measurements are performed in the range of small NH3 concentration (below 10 ppm) and the results confirm very good sensitivity even in very small NH3 concentration.

Nickel Doping on Cobalt Oxide Thin Film Using by Sputtering Process-a Route for Surface Modification for p-type Metal Oxide Gas Sensors
摘要： This study proposes a route for surface modification for p-type cobalt oxide-based gas sensors. We deposit a thin layer of Ni on the Co oxide film by sputtering process and annealed at 350 °C for 15 min in air, which changes a typical sputtered film surface into one interlaced with a high density of hemispherical nanoparticles. Our in-depth materials characterization using transmission electron microscopy discloses that the microstructure evolution is the result of an extensive inter-diffusion of Co and Ni, and that the nanoparticles are nickel oxide dissolving some Co. Sensor performance measurement unfolds that the surface modification results in a significant sensitivity enhancement, nearly 200% increase for toluene (at 250 °C) and CO (at 200 °C) gases in comparison with the undoped samples.

Sub-ppm acetone gas sensing properties of free-standing ZnO nanorods
摘要： In this paper, ZnO nanorods were synthesized by low cost and simple wet chemical method and used as a highly sensitive acetone gas sensor with detection limit as low as 25 ppb which makes the sensor a promising choice for various applications. The fabricated sensor showed a response value of 1.75 towards 25 ppb acetone at optimum working temperature of 320 °C with a response time of 30s. However, the sensor showed response value of 60 towards 50 ppm acetone with a response time of 15 s. The grown ZnO nanorods were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) for morphology and crystallinity characterization. According to the SEM images, freestanding nanorods with mean diameter of 80 nm and mean length greater than 1.5um were obtained with highly preferential c-axis orientation.

Selective Gas Sensor Using Porous Silicon
摘要： The effect of polar and non-polar vapors, like ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile, chloroform and toluene vapors on porous silicon gas sensor was studied. We demonstrated that the selectivity of a single sensor can be achieved by the impedance measurements within the frequency range 103–105 Hz. It is shown that the capacitance of the structure and its frequency dispersion are different under influence of different gases providing an unique signature of an agent. A set of parameters is proposed in order to numerically characterize the response to different gases. The characteristic time of response to different vapors gives an additional parameter to sense gases selectively.

Fabrication and characterization of VOC sensor array based on SnO2 and ZnO nanoparticles functionalized by metalloporphyrins
摘要： A volatile organic compound (VOC) sensor array based on metal oxide nanoparticles (MOX NPs) functionalized by metalloporphyrins (MPPs) was demonstrated. The VOC sensor array was composed of four single sensors based on SnO2 NPs/cobalt-porphyrin, SnO2 NPs/zinc-porphyrin, SnO2 NPs/nickel-porphyrin and ZnO NPs/cobalt-porphyrin. The MOX NP/MPP-based sensors were fabricated by drop-casting the MOX NPs dispersion and MPPs solution onto a MEMS platform. The fabricated sensor successfully detected toluene at a concentration as low as 20 ppb, which is below the limit detection concentration of previously reported porphyrin-based VOC sensor arrays. We also confirmed the selectivity between benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) by using principal component analysis in contrast to previous studies on MOX/MPP-based sensor. BTEX was classified from 1 to 9 ppm at a resolution of 2 ppm, and the sensor array showed stable performance even after considerable impact.

Synthesis of Cu2O/CuO Nanocrystals and Their Application to H2S Sensing
摘要： Semiconducting metal oxide nanocrystals are an important class of materials that have versatile applications because of their useful properties and high stability. Here, we developed a simple route to synthesize nanocrystals (NCs) of copper oxides such as Cu2O and CuO using a hot-soap method, and applied them to H2S sensing. Cu2O NCs were synthesized by simply heating a copper precursor in oleylamine in the presence of diol at 160 °C under an Ar flow. X-ray diffractometry (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results indicated the formation of monodispersed Cu2O NCs having approximately 5 nm in crystallite size and 12 nm in colloidal size. The conversion of the Cu2O NCs to CuO NCs was undertaken by straightforward air oxidation at room temperature, as confirmed by XRD and UV-vis analyses. A thin film Cu2O NC sensor fabricated by spin coating showed responses to H2S in dilute concentrations (1–8 ppm) at 50–150 °C, but the stability was poor because of the formation of metallic Cu2S in a H2S atmosphere. We found that Pd loading improved the stability of the sensor response. The Pd-loaded Cu2O NC sensor exhibited reproducible responses to H2S at 200 °C. Based on the gas sensing mechanism, it is suggested that Pd loading facilitates the reaction of adsorbed oxygen with H2S and suppresses the irreversible formation of Cu2S.

Electron Beam Lithography for contacting single nanowires on non-flat suspended substrates
摘要： A methodology based on the use of Electron Beam Lithography for contacting individual nanowires on top of non-flat micromembranes and microhotplates has been implemented, and the practical details have been exhaustively described. The different fabrication steps have been adapted to the substrate’s topology, requiring specific holders and conditions. The methodology is demonstrated on individual SnO2 nanowires, which, after fabrication, have been characterized as functional resistive gas nanosensors towards NH3 and benchmarked against similar devices fabricated using more conventional Dual Beam Focused Ion Beam techniques, demonstrating the superior properties of the here presented methodology, which can be further extended to other non-conventional suspended substrates and nanomaterials.

WO3 Based Gas Sensors
摘要： WO3 is a commonly used material for gas sensing. Although a great deal of research has been done on how to tune sensors based on WO3, no clear consensus exists on what characteristics are inherent to the metal oxide: This work looks at six different WO3 samples and aims to identify which characteristics are common to all materials. Specifically, the interaction of the samples with humidity is examined.
