α-Fe <sub/>2</sub> O <sub/>3</sub> Polyhedral Nanoparticles Enclosed by Different Crystal Facets: Tunable Synthesis, Formation Mechanism Analysis, and Facets-dependent <i>n</i> -Butanol Sensing Properties
摘要： Three kinds of polyhedral α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles enclosed by different facets including oblique parallel hexahedrons (op-hexahedral NPs), cracked oblique parallel hexahedrons (cop-hexahedral NPs), and octadecahedral nanoparticles (octadecahedral NPs), were successfully prepared by simply changing only one reaction parameter in the hydrothermal process. The structural and morphological of the products were systematically studied using various characterizations including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), revealing that the three kinds of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles were enclosed by {104}, {110}/{104}, and {102}/{012}/{104} crystal planes, respectively. The exposed facets and shape of the nanocrystals were found to be affected by the adding amount of ethylene glycol in the solvent. The gas-sensing properties and mechanism of the α-Fe2O3 samples were studied and analyzed, which indicated that the sensitivity of the three samples followed the order of octadecahedral NPs (cid:2) cop-hexahedral NPs (cid:2) op-hexahedral NPs due to the combined effects of specific surface area and oxygen defects in the nanocrystals.

Metal–organic framework-derived ZnO hollow nanocages functionalized with nanoscale Ag catalysts for enhanced ethanol sensing properties
摘要： Increase of porosity and functionalization with nanoscale catalysts are two significant aspects for achieving high-performance metal oxide-based resistive gas sensors. In this work, a simple metal–organic framework (MOF) route has been developed to fabricate Ag nanocatalysts functionalized ZnO hollow nanocages (NCs). Nanoscale Ag catalysts with a small size of approximately 10 nm are uniformly encapsulated within the cavities of MOFs (ZIF-8). The high porosity, hollow structure, and functionalization with uniformly-distributed nanoscale Ag catalysts have been simultaneously achieved for MOF-derived ZnO. This type of porous Ag–ZnO hollow NCs show much enhanced ethanol sensing performances and reduced operating temperature in comparison with pure ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) and ZnO NCs. In particular, the 1 ml Ag–ZnO NCs exhibit the highest response of 84.6 to 100 ppm ethanol at 250 °C, which is 6.4 and 3.3 times higher than those of pure ZnO NPs and ZnO NCs at the optimum operating temperature of 275 °C, respectively. The Ag–ZnO NCs also display fast response/recovery times, good ethanol selectivity, and response reproducibility. The enhanced ethanol sensing properties are attributed to the synergistic effects of several points including the electron sensitization effects and catalytic effects of nanoscale Ag catalysts, porous and hollow structures, high surface area, and high surface O? species absorbing capability of Ag–ZnO NCs.

Improvement of Sensing Performance of Impedancemetric C2H2 Sensor Using SmFeO3 Thin-Films Prepared by a Polymer Precursor Method
摘要： A sensitive an impedancemetric acetylene (C2H2) gas sensor device could be fabricated by using perovskite-type SmFeO3 thin-film as a sensor material. The uniform SmFeO3 thin-films were prepared by spin-coating and focusing on the effects of polymer precursor solutions. The prepared precursors and thin-films were characterized by means of thermal analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was found that particle growth and increase in homogeneity of the prepared thin-film could be accelerated by the addition of acetyl acetone (AcAc) as a coordination agent in the polymer precursor solution. Moreover, the highly crystallized thin-film-based sensor showed good response properties and stabilities to a low C2H2 concentration between 0.5 and 2.0 ppm.

Selective H2S-sensing performance of Si nanowires through the formation of ZnO shells with Au functionalization
摘要： A novel gas sensor fabricated from ZnO-shelled Si nanowires (SiNWs) is presented. After coating a thin layer of Au on the surfaces of Si NWs, ZnO layers were formed on the surfaces of p-SiNWs by thermal evaporation of Zn powders and a subsequent oxidation process. Microscopic analysis confirmed the successful formation of ZnO-Si core-shell NWs with Au nanoparticles present on the shell surface. The gas sensing performance of the gas sensor fabricated using the p-Si/n-ZnO core-shell NWs was evaluated for various gases. The sensor exhibited outstanding response and selectivity to H2S gas. The gas sensing mechanism was evaluated in detail and attributed to various factors, including the formation of ZnO/Si and Au/ZnO heterojunctions and the chemical attraction between ZnO and Au. The results demonstrate a new sensing material for H2S detection in various fields that can be easily incorporated into Si-based devices.

Sol–Gel Spin-Coating Followed by Solvothermal Synthesis of Nanorods-Based ZnO Thin Films: Microstructural, Optical, and Gas Sensing Properties
摘要： Zinc oxide thin films with nanorod morphology were investigated for microstructural and optical properties as well as their performance as a liquid petroleum gas sensing material. A two-step synthesis procedure consisting of sol–gel spin-coating and solvothermal methods was employed where several factors such as rational utilization of metal precursors, solvent, stabilizing, and structure directing agents, a repetitive drying-coating process, as well as post-thermal annealing were found influential to obtain qualified nanorods and a final homogeneous thin film. Compositional and optical investigations were pursued to characterize features, namely morphology, poly crystallinity, porous structure, nanocrystallite size, lattice oriented growth, textural atomic ratio, lattice purity and transparency, phonon and exciton transitions, as well as the formed structural defects via field-emission scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive x-ray, UV–Vis spectroscopy, Raman, and photoluminescence techniques. The as-prepared thin film was then used as an active LPG sensing material via a home-made gas sensor where the control sensing parameters were chamber testing temperature and gas concentration. Results showed a quantitative response of 92.7% as sensor sensitivity at an operation temperature of 250°C and a LPG concentration of 800 ppm in addition to fast response and recovery times of 44.1 s and 218.7 s, respectively.

Electrical Properties of Porous Silicon for N2 Gas Sensor
摘要： The application of porous silicon (PSi) for gas sensing devices has gained a considerable attention in the last decade. This work considers the electrical features of PSi layers prepared by electrochemical etching. We find that in order to get a better understanding of the absorption properties of PSi surface, it is necessary to know how the PSi morphology depends on the etching parameters. The physical structure of PSi, i.e., porosity, and pore size distribution can be controlled by changing the Hydrofluoric Acid concentration, current density, anodizing length and etching time in anodizing procedure. We describe our test system for gas sensors and investigate on the electrical behavior of PSi layers (p-type) in N2 gas for various fabrication conditions. The results show that the current density increases significantly as N2 gas is adsorbed. The measurements of the I-V characteristics were carried out at atmospheric pressure, room temperature, and with N2 gas as well.

Resistive room temperature LPG sensor based on a graphene/CdO nanocomposite
摘要： The authors decribe an ultra-sensitive, room temperature, flexible transparent LPG sensor based on the use of a CdO/graphene nanocomposite. The graphene prevents the accumulation of CdO, enhances the surface area, and acts as a gas sensing material. FESEM images show a uniform decoration of CdO nanoparticles on graphene. The CdO/graphene composite was deposited as a film on interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) which then were used for chemiresistive sensing of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) by using a four probe technique. A Resistivity decreases significantly upon exposure to a LPG. The electrical resistance measurement at a constant bias voltage of 0.5 V. The sensor of type CdO/graphene (1 wt.%) exhibits a sensitivity of 600 ppm of LPG at 27 °C. It is a highly selective, stable and sensitive to low concentration of LPG even at room temperature.

A Comparative Study of Gas Sensing Properties of Tungsten Oxide, Tin Oxide and Tin-Doped Tungsten Oxide Thin Films for Acetone Gas Detection
摘要： Nowadays, various metal oxide thin films have been used for the purpose of gas sensing. This research depicts a comparison of gas sensing properties among four different metal oxide thin films, namely, tungsten dioxide (WO2), tungsten trioxide (WO3), tin oxide (SnO2) and tin doped tungsten trioxide (Sn-doped WO3), for detecting acetone gas. Each metal oxide thin film was subjected to acetone gas flow of various concentrations and the corresponding changes in resistance were calculated. Characterizations such as x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and gas sensing characterization for recording resistance changes have been performed. Each film was annealed at different temperatures for 1 h (WO2 and WO3 at 500°C, SnO2 at 300°C and Sn-doped WO3 at 400°C) so as to achieve an optimum grain size for sensing. The XRD patterns reveal formation of an orthorhombic phase of WO2, hexagonal phase of WO3 and orthorhombic phase of SnO2. AFM and SEM depict clear images of grain boundaries on the film. SnO2 has been found to be the best thin film for sensing acetone gas. Operational optimum temperature for sensing acetone gas has been calculated for each thin film (260°C for WO2, 220°C for WO3, 360°C for SnO2 and 300°C for Sn-doped WO3). It can detect a very low concentration of 1.5 ppm acetone gas with a good resistance response change of 30%. Various concentrations of acetone gas, namely, 1.5 ppm, 3 ppm, 5 ppm, 7 ppm, 10 ppm, 15 ppm and 20 ppm, have been detected using these metal oxide thin films, and thus the comparison has been made. The response time for SnO2 is approximately 3 min and recovery time is approximately 4 min.

Effect of O <sub/>2</sub> Flow Rate on Properties of Mn–SnO <sub/>2</sub> /Ag/Mn–SnO <sub/>2</sub> Multilayer Film
摘要： Multilayer films with Mn–SnO2 (MTO)/Ag/Mn–SnO2 (MTO) hybrid structure were prepared on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate using a DC/RF sputtering system at room temperature. The optical, electrical, and structural properties of the thus-synthesized multilayer films were systematically investigated as a function of the O2/(Ar + O2) flow rate. The transmittance of the MTO/Ag/MTO multilayer films at 550 nm increased gradually from 83.1% to 87.9% and the sheet resistance (Rs) of the multilayer films increased from 6.3 to 9.8 Ω/sq upon increasing the O2/(Ar + O2) flow rate. The highest figure of merit (ΦTC) of the MTO/Ag/MTO multilayer film was 45.7 × 10?3 Ω?1 at an O2/(Ar + O2) flow rate of 2.8%. X-ray photoelectron spectra of multilayer films obtained with different O2/(Ar + O2) flow rates showed no noticeable variation.

Design and characterization of small detection modules based on scintillators and WLS bars with SiPM readout for a cosmic ray mini-array
摘要： This paper describes the design and characterization tests of detection modules for a low-cost, easily reconfigurable mini-array for cosmic rays. The basic layout of each individual module is based on a 400 cm2 scintillator tile, optically coupled to a Wavelength Shifter (WLS) bar and a Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) for light collection and readout. Low cost solutions, based on the Arduino MEGA board, have been adopted for electronics, triggering and data acquisition, in view of the operation of this facility. The first detection modules, equipped with 4×4 mm2 SiPMs were fully built and characterized. Additional tests were also carried out with photosensors having different sensitive area and technology.
