چکیده

Palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (5-20 nm) are used as the sensing layer on surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices for detecting H2. The interaction with hydrogen modifies the conductivity of the Pd nanoparticle film, producing measurable changes in acoustic wave propagation, which allows for the detection of this explosive gas. The nanoparticle-based SAW sensor responds rapidly and reversibly at room temperature.

TiO2 based surface acoustic wave gas sensor with modified electrode dimensions for enhanced H2 sensing application

The design and optimization of nanostructure-based surface acoustic wave (SAW) gas sensor is analyzed based on TiO2 sensing layer and modified electrode dimensions. The sensitivity of the gas sensor depends upon the type of sensing layer used and active surface area obtained by varying the aspect ratio. The performance of the sensor is observed from 0.1ppm to 100ppm concentration of ...

Simplified Finite Element Simulation of a SAW Hydrogen Sensor using COMSOL Multiphysics

In this paper, we discuss a simplified finite element method (FEM) simulation of surface acoustic wave (SAW) delay line hydrogen sensor using COMSOL Multiphysics. A delay line SAW sensor consists of a transmitting interdigital transducer (IDT) and a receiving IDT separated by a few wavelengths. In this paper, the number of degrees of freedom (DOF) to solve for the SAW delay line sensor model is...

Sensor Properties of Bilayer Structures with Palladium, Lead and Cobalt Phthalocyanines in Surface Acoustic Wave and Electric Systems

Presented here are the results concerning a hydrogen sensor based on a novel bilayer structure with lead and cobalt phthalocyanines in a Surface Acoustic Wave dual-delay line and electric systems. The sensor material consists of two layers produced in two different vapour deposition processes. The first one is a lead or cobalt phthalocyanine (~310nm PbPc or 200nm CoPc) layer, whereas the second...

Room Temperature Hydrogen Sensor Based on Single-Electron Tunneling Between Palladium Nanoparticles

In this paper, we present the results of single-electron tunneling in two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal closed packed arrays of palladium nanoparticles. After inspecting the emergence of Coulomb blockade phenomena, we demonstrate the possibilities of using these arrays as a single-electron tunneling based hydrogen sensor. We assumed arrays of palladium nanoparticles with diameters of 3.5 and 6...
