Abstract

In this study, rose-like nickel oxide nanoparticles (diameter of 400–500[Formula: see text]nm) were prepared on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrates by a simple electrodeposition in NiSO[Formula: see text]6H2O solution. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used for analysis of the NiO nanoparticles. The effects of operating temperature on the sensor response and the response versus gas concentration properties of the NiO nanorose-based sensors were investigated. We determined the operating temperature of the gas sensors to be 230[Formula: see text]C, considering the proper sensitivity and a rapid response. In addition, gas-sensing characteristics of rose-like NiO nanoparticles to formaldehyde were investigated. It was shown that the sensors exhibited good response ([Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text]) properties to formaldehyde gas at 230[Formula: see text]C, making them to be promising candidates for practical detectors to formaldehyde gas.
