摘要： Gallium Oxy Hydrate (GaOOH) and β-Ga2O3 nanostructures in submicron scale have been synthesized at low temperature by surfactant-free hydro-thermal method. First, GaOOH has been synthesized using Gallium nitrate anhydrate, Ammonium hydroxide as precursors and double distilled water as solvent. As obtained GaOOH powders have been characterized by XRD, FE–SEM, UV–VIS, Thermo Gravimetric Analysis, I-V characteristics and BET surface analysis in order to reveal their structural, morphological, optical, thermal, electrical and surface properties. FE-SEM micrographs confirm the rod like and needle like morphologies of GaOOH and β- Ga2O3 samples, respectively. Porous nature of the samples observed through BET and BJH analyses. Synthesized GaOOH and β-Ga2O3 powders have been subjected to room temperature CO2 gas sensing in the range, 2000 ppm – 10000 ppm. GaOOH showed quick response of 80 s and fast recovery of 129 s at 8000 ppm while β-Ga2O3 showed quick response of 52 s at 8000 ppm and faster recovery of 98 s at 4000 ppm. Also, the repeatability studies were done for GaOOH and β-Ga2O3 films by exposing to different CO2 concentrations for a period of 6 consecutive days. β-Ga2O3 showed enhanced CO2 sensing response than that of GaOOH due to its better structural, electrical, morphological and surface properties.
