Abstract

The invention discloses a method to prepare ITO nanometer lines and a method to prepare ITO gas sensors. The method to prepare ITO nanometer lines is as follows: a layer of gold film deposits on an underlayer; powdered indium oxide, stannous oxide and plumbago are mixed pro rata, and are arranged in a boat; the underlayer is also arranged on the boat to be heated and thermally insulated together with the mixture. The air pressure inside a silica tube in a heater is kept to be about 300 Pa, and gaseous mixture containing little oxygen is admitted in the silica tube; after the heater is cooled to the room temperature, yellowish products are generated on the underlayer. The method to prepare the sensors is that the nanameter lines are dispersed in the solution for about two hours with ultrasonic wave, and are dried; the sizing agent formed is applied on the ceramic tubes of two electrodes, and needs covering on the electrodes; then the sizing agent is dried or sintered, and is connected with a leading wire. The method to prepare the ITO nanometer lines has the advantages of simplicity, controllability, low cost, and that the materials have excellent gas sensitivity. The method to prepare the gas sensor has the advantages of short response time, short recovery time, stable nature, low noise, and high sensitivity; and the method is applicable for large-scale industrial production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of an ITO nanowire and a gas sensor thereof. Background technique [0002] The application of nanotechnology in the field of sensing is expected to improve sensitivity, miniaturize components and increase integration. Due to the large specific surface area of ​​nanomaterials, their electrical properties are very sensitive to surface adsorption. When external environmental factors change, they will quickly cause changes in the surface, interface ions, and electron transport, which will significantly affect their resistance. The change in resistance can be used to Made into a sensor, it is characterized by fast response, high sensitivity and good selectivity. At present, many gas sensors have adopted nanoparticle structure. They have large specific surface area, high surface activity, and are very sensitive to the surrounding environment. However, the resistance of the sensor is large, and it is easy to aggl...
