چکیده مقاله:

Indium (1at %) doped ZnO and ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized via sol gel method. The structural characters of the synthesized nanoparticles have been studied by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersiveX-ray spectroscopy (EDX). From synthesized nanopowders a tablet was prepared by using the isostatic pressing and then sintered at 600°C. Then, the gas-sensing properties of ZnO and IZO powder tablets were evaluated with respect to the acetone gas at different temperatures and concentrations. XRD pattern and SEM images showed the prepared samples were crystallized in the wurtzite structure with the average particle size of 32 and 27 nm. The gas sensing measurement results showed that the indium dopant ions improved the gas sensitivity of ZnO for high acetone concentrations effectively. Therefore, it is suggested that the IZO tablet can act as reliable and low cast gas sensor for acetone detection. Sintering temperature strongly increased the grain size and density of samples. EDX analysis confirmed the presence of indium in zinc oxide structure.

Embedded ZnO nanorods and gas-sensing properties

Regular hexagonal embedded ZnO nanorods were successfully prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The addition of urea as a homogeneous precursor was found to play a vital role in the embedding of secondary nanorods. The nanostructures were characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDS. The gas-sensing properties of secondary grown embedded nanorods were reported for formaldehyde, ethanol, methanol, ace...
