| Popis: | Metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors of hydrogen with a typical capacitor-like Pt/TiO2/Pt electrode arrangement exhibit excellent sensitivity to hydrogen even at room temperature. At the same time, very similar Pt/TiO2/Pt cells can also be used as memristive elements exhibiting resistive switching between two resistive states, which has been recently exploited to create a gas sensor with built-in memory. Merging of these two functionalities within a single device also opens new possibilities for smart gas sensor arrays. However, so far such sensors have been prepared only on rigid substrates. In this work, a flexible hydrogen gas sensor with such capacitor-like Pt/TiO2/Pt electrode arrangement fabricated on polyimide foil is presented and characterized in terms of hydrogen gas sensing properties and bending endurance. The sensor exhibits high response (Rair/RH2) of more than 105 to 10 000 ppm H2 at 150 °C with minor decline at elevated humidity and is capable of room temperature operation. The lowest detected concentration was 3 ppm at 150 °C and 300 ppm at room temperature in dry conditions. Bending the sensor 105 times over diameter of 10 mm led to slight improvement of the sensing performance. |
