Thick-Film Carbon Dioxide Sensor via Anodic Adsorbate Stripping Technique and Its Structural Dependence
نویسندگان
چکیده
A three-electrode based CO(2) sensor was fabricated using thick-film technology. The performance of this sensor was further enhanced by incorporating platinum nanoparticles onto the working electrode surface. An eight-fold increase in the signal output was obtained from the electrode with the platinum nanoparticles. The sensing output was linearly related to the CO(2) presented. Stability measurements demonstrated that the decline of the active surface area and the sensitivity of the sensor were 8% and 13%, respectively, over a two week period of time. The sensor response appeared to be a structural dependence of the crystallographic orientation of platinum electrode.

In this research, process asymmetric polyetherimide hollow fiber membranes using ethanol (0, 2 and 4 wt%) as non-solvent additive in the polymer dope via phase inversion method were fabricated. Aqueous solution of 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidine (NMP) (90%) was applied as a bore fluid to avoid inner skin layer formation and water was used as the external coagulant. The morphology of fabricated membranes...

Anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) with rotating glassy carbon electrode (RGCE) and microfiber carbon electrode (μFCE), both filmed with mercury, were used to determine copper content in wine. Influence of phenolics on in situ mercury film formation was studied. Wine and quercetin were added gradually into solution of Hg(II) in acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer (pH = 4.60). Reduction of Hg(II) ...

This work demonstrates the variability in performance between SnO(2) thick film gas sensors prepared using two types of film deposition methods. SnO(2) powders were deposited on sensor platforms with and without the use of binders. Three commonly utilized binder recipes were investigated, and a new binder-less deposition procedure was developed and characterized. The binder recipes yielded sens...

Nitrogen doped tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C:N) thin films were deposited on p-Si (1 11) substrates (1×10−3 to 6×10−3 cm) by a filtered cathodic vacuum arc technique with different nitrogen flow rates (3 and 20 sccm). The ta-C:N film coated samples were used as working electrodes to detect trace heavy metals such as zinc (Zn), lead (Pb), copper (Cu) and mercury (Hg) by using linear sweep a...
