Nanofibers of ZnO-SnO2 nanocomposites doped with Au crystals were synthesized by an electrospinning method for enhancement of H2S gas sensing performance. The mixed solution of zinc acetate dihydrate and tin(II) chloride dihydrate, dissolved in ethanol/DMF solvent, was spun directly on the interdigital Pt electrodes for sensor fabrication. Thermal treatment was carried out to convert the spun nanofibers into ZnO-SnO2 nanocomposites doped with Au crystals. SEM and TEM observation confirmed the formation of porous nanofibers with an average diameter of about 120 nm. X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the nanocomposites of ZnO and SnO2 phases were formed, but not ZnSnO3, despite the... |
Fabrication of a high-performance room-temperature (RT) gas sensor is important for the future integration of sensors into smart, portable and Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based devices. Herein, we developed a NO2 gas sensor based on ultrathin MoS2 nanoflowers with high sensitivity at RT. The MoS2 flower-like nanostructures were synthesised via a simple hydrothermal method with different growth times of 24, 36, 48, and 60 h. The synthesised MoS2 nanoflowers were subsequently characterised by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The petal-like nanosheets in pure MoS2 agglomerated to f... |
The detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is very important in practical application in breath analysis. Thus, gas sensors based on metal oxide have been fabricated, but they lacked selectivity. One approach to resolve this task is to use array of highly sensitive and selective sensors as an electronic nose. Here we present a gas sensor array of Tin oxide nano-structure use of temperature modulation techniques. A Platinum micro-heater is accompanied with the array gas sensor. The gas sensor array was composing of five single sensors and that single sensor is located at different site from the micro heater and work at different temperatures. The gas sensing properties of the g... |
