| Title: | Room temperature gas sensing properties of SnO₂/multiwall-carbon-nanotube composite nanofibers | Authors: | Yang, A Tao, X Wang, R Lee, SC Surya, C |
Issue Date: | 24-Sep-2007 | Source: | Applied physics letters, 24 Sept. 2007, v. 91, no. 13, 133110, p. 1-3 | Abstract: | Pure SnO₂and SnO₂polycrystalline nanofibers doped with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are synthesized by electrospinning followed by calcination in air at 500 °C. The measurement results by sensors fabricated from these fiber mats at steady state show that the n-type SnO₂/MWCNT nanofibers are able to detect carbon monoxide at 50 ppm at room temperature, while the pure SnO₂nanofibers are insensitive up to 500 ppm. The MWCNT doped SnO₂nanofibers have demonstrated their potentials for wearable room temperature gas sensors with low cost and power consumption. | Keywords: | Calcination Carbon nanotubes Elemental semiconductors Gas sensors Nanocomposites Nanotechnology Nanotube devices Semiconductor nanotubes Tin compounds |
