چکیده
Nanoparticle films of PdxWO3, with x being 0.01 or 0.12, were made by dual-beam gas evaporation. The stochastic signal component (fluctuation-enhanced signal) originating from resistance fluctuations and the dc resistance (classical sensor signal) were measured during e l ©

Enhanced methanol sensing performance of oblique deposited WO3 thin films
Methanol (CH3OH) is a colorless liquid with a mild odor. The wide ranges of applications, toxicity and clinical implications of methanol have made necessary to develop reliable and high-performance methanol sensors. In this paper, WO3 thin films were deposited on SiO2/Si substrates by e-beam evaporation technique under normal and oblique angles and then post-annealed at 500 °C with a flow of ox...
متن کاملFabrication, characterization and investigation of gas sensing properties of MoO3 thin films
In this research, molybdenum oxide (α-MoO3) thin films were coated on glass substrates using spray pyrolysis technique. 0.05 M ammonium heptamolybdate tetrahydrate was used as precursor and deionized water as solvent. The effects of carrier gas pressure, during the spraying of the solution, on the structural, optical, morphological and gas sensing properties of thin films were studied. X-ray di...
متن کاملTiO2 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 ...
متن کاملImproving Gas Sensing Properties of Tin Oxide Nanowires Palladium-Coated Using a Low Cost Technique
Thin films of SnO2 nanowires were successfully prepared by using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process on quartz substrates. Afterwards, a thin layer of palladium (Pd) as a catalyst was coated on top of nanowires. For the deposition of Pd, a simple and low cost technique of spray pyrolysis was employed, which caused an intensive enhancement on the sensing response of fabricated sensors...
متن کاملGas sensing behaviour of mat-like networked tungsten oxide nanowire thin films
Here, we present the results of the resistive response of tungsten trioxide nanowire (mat-like, nanowire networks) and nanoparticle thin films subjected to N2O gas in the temperature range of 373–773 K. The nanowire mats exhibited an order of magnitude higher response in the resistivity change compared to that of nanoparticle films at temperatures above 523 K. Nanowire mats also exhibited relat...
