Abstract

The invention provides a manufacturing method of a carbon nanotube gas sensor based on corona discharge and is characterized by providing a novel carbon nanotube ion type gas sensor by using the unique physical structure of the carbon nanotube and the tip emission effect based on the gas corona discharge principle. The sensor is formed by aligned carbon nanotube arrays grown on an anodic aluminium oxide template. The carbon nanotubes and the electrodes are integrated, thus simplifying the structure of the device and the process and ensuring convenient control and measurement. Compared with the prior art, the gas sensor has the advantages of simple structure, lower cost, high sensitivity, good detection repeatability, low energy consumption, small occupied space and convenient use. The gas sensor requires lower direct current voltage, thus reducing the danger level of operation and being expected to realize the portable gas monitoring device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gas sensor for corona discharge, in particular to a method for manufacturing a gas sensor based on carbon nanotube corona discharge. technical background [0002] At present, gas detection basically uses the gas adsorption of the sensitive element of the gas sensor to change its electrical characteristics such as resistance, capacitance, frequency and other parameters, so as to realize the detection of gas. However, such sensors generally have the disadvantages of being greatly affected by the external environment, long adsorption-desorption time, poor repeatability, small gas selectivity, short service life, complex detection equipment, and high cost. [0003] Since the advent of carbon nanotubes, it has attracted the attention of many research fields because of its unique structure, excellent electrical properties and stable chemical and physical properties. Kong et al. and Varghese et al. respectively studied single-wall ...
