A two-step hydrothermally grown ZnO microtube array for CO gas sensing
Source abstract
Abstract
Tubular ZnO microstructure arrays were fabricated on a large scale by a two-step hydrothermal method. The porous ZnO tubular structures were then used to construct a gas sensor for CO detection. The microtube array gas sensor showed sensitive response to different concentration of CO with an optimum temperature of 250 °C. Because of the large surface to volume ratio, the sensitivity of the microtube arrays was about twice of that of the ZnO rods. Our results indicate that this simple two-step method for fabrication of large-scale tubular microstructure arrays can be potentially used in gas sensor applications with improved performance.
