SnO2 nanowires (NWs) are used in gas sensors, but their response to highly toxic gas H2S is low. Thus, their performance toward the effective detection of low-level H2S in air should be improved for environmental-pollution control and monitoring. Herein, Ag2O nanoparticle decorated SnO2 NWs were prepared by a simple on-chip growth and subsequent dip-coating method. The amount of decorated Ag2O nanoparticles on the surface of SnO2 NWs was modified by changing the concentration of AgNO3 solution and/or dipping times. Gas-sensing measurements were conducted at various working temperatures (200–400 °C) toward different H2S concentrations ranging within 0.1–1 ppm. The selectivity of Ag2O-d... |
