Abstract
This paper proposes a simple and efficient method to develop a nanocomposite by depositing platinum (Pt) nanoparticles on a carbon nanotube (CNT) sheet, and experimentally verifies the applicability of the proposed nanocomposite as a reliable and sensitive carbon monoxide (CO) gas sensor that operates at room temperature. A Pt-CNT nanocomposite shows improved CO gas sensing properties compared with the pristine CNT sheet. Owing to its large surface area and high conductivity, a CNT sheet exhibits improved sensitivity and fast response and recovery times. Based on the Pt-CNT nanocomposite implemented by the proposed method, we fabricated a Pt-CNT sheet-based CO gas sensor operating at room temperature and experimentally verified its stable and reliable room temperature sensing properties and excellent structural flexibility.
