Abstract
Hydrogen gas sensors which could be applied in harsh environments (high temperature, corrosion atmosphere, etc.) are highly demanded in special fields such as aerospace and chemical industry. Here, we have successfully produced a platinum nanoclusters@silicon carbide nanosheets (Pt NCs@SiC NSs) gas sensor via a simple one-step wet chemical reduction reaction. The Pt NCs@SiC NSs show good response (15.7%) towards 500 ppm hydrogen under 300 °C. Besides, this device possesses a good linear response towards different hydrogen concentration under 500 ppm and keeps a good stability in one month. The gas sensing properties of Pt NCs@SiC NSs are mainly from the Schottky junction-based structure, in which both reception and transduction process play important roles. This work provides a simple way to prepare high-temperature hydrogen sensors without complex equipment, and the large-scale preparation is also available.
