Selectivity shifting behavior of Pd nanoparticles loaded zinc stannate/zinc oxide (Zn2SnO4/ZnO) nanowires sensors
In this research, the gas sensing behavior of Pd nanoparticles loaded zinc stannate/zinc oxide (Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO) nanowires were investigated. The Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires were grown on Au interdigitated alumina substrate by carbon assisted thermal evaporation process. Pd nanoparticles were loaded o...

In this research, the gas sensing behavior of Pd nanoparticles loaded zinc stannate/zinc oxide (Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO) nanowires were investigated. The Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires were grown on Au interdigitated alumina substrate by carbon assisted thermal evaporation process. Pd nanoparticles were loaded on the Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires by wet reduction process. The nanowires were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, field emission scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope. The Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO and Pd nanoparticles loaded Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires were investigated for detecting H 2 , H 2 S and C 2 H 5 OH gases in N 2 background. Results revealed that the average diameter and length of as-grown Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires were 74 nm and 30 μm, respectively. During wet reduction process,Pd particles having size of 20–60 nm were evenly distributed on the Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires. The Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires based sensors showed selective response towards C 2 H 5 OH whereas Pd nanoparticles loaded Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires showed selective response towards H 2 . The recovery time of the sensors reduced with Pd loading on Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires. A mechanism is proposed to elucidate the gas sensing mechanism of Pd nanoparticles loaded Zn 2 SnO 4 /ZnO nanowires. |
