Abstract
Considering that H2S is a hazardous gas that poses a significant risk to people's lives, research into H2S gas sensors has garnered a lot of interest. This work reports a CuO/ZnO multifaceted nanostructures(NS) created by heat treating Cu2+/ZIF-8 impregnation precursors, and their microstructure and gas sensing characteristics were examined using various characterization techniques (XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, and BET). The as-prepared hollow CuO/ZnO multifunctional nanostructures had a high gas response value (425@50 ppm H2S gas), quick response and recovery times (57/191s @20 ppm), a low limit of detection (1.6@500 ppb H2S), good humidity resistance and highly selective towards H2S gas. The hollow CuO/ZnO multifaceted nanostructures possessed enhanced gas sensing capabilities which may be related to their porous hollow nanostructures, the manufactured p-CuO/n-ZnO heterojunctions, and the spillover effect between CuO and H2S.
