Popis: | The sensing performance of a micro-sensor based on a thick film of nitrogen-doped single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNTs) is compared to a pristine SWCNTs film. Transfer length method analysis is used to extract the film sheet resistance from electrical measurements and reveals that the gas sensing mechanism is mainly attributed to the charge transfer between gas molecules and SWCNTs. We demonstrate that the sensitivity to NH3 can be improved by using a sensor based N-doped SWCNTs films while the sensitivity to NO2 and water vapour is unmodified. These unique gas-sensing properties can be used to develop a new NH3-selective differential gas sensor. |
