Reduced Graphene Oxide/Au Nanocomposite for NO2 Sensing at Low Operating Temperature
نویسندگان
چکیده
A reduced grapheme oxide (rGO)/Au hybrid nanocomposite has been synthesized by hydrothermal treatment using graphite and HAuCl₄ as the precursors. Characterization, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, X-ray photoelecton spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), indicates the formation of rGO/Au. A gas sensor fabricated with rGO/Au nanocomposite was applied for NO₂ detection at 50 °C. Compared with pure rGO, rGO/Au nanocomposite exhibits higher sensitivity, a more rapid response-recovery process and excellent reproducibility.

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in synthesis of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) nanocomposites for room temperature gas sensing applications. Generally, the sensitivity of a MOS can be obviously enhanced by the incorporation of rGO. However, a lack of knowledge regarding how rGO can enhance gas-sensing performances of MOSs impedes its sensing app...
متن کاملReduced graphene oxide for room-temperature gas sensors.
We demonstrated high-performance gas sensors based on graphene oxide (GO) sheets partially reduced via low-temperature thermal treatments. Hydrophilic graphene oxide sheets uniformly suspended in water were first dispersed onto gold interdigitated electrodes. The partial reduction of the GO sheets was then achieved through low-temperature, multi-step annealing (100, 200, and 300 degrees C) or o...
