Abstract
ZnO thin film and nanowire morphologies were employed to fabricate CO gas sensors by using radio frequency magnetron sputtering and chemical vapour deposition growth. The sensing properties were measured at CO gas concentration ranging from 10 to 50ppm at varying operating temperature. The results showed a 5-folded sensitivity and half-reduced response time for the hybrid material based on both thin film and nanowires with respect to thin film only, thus indicating the high potential of morphology tailoring, namely, the surface-to-volume ratio and depletion layer, for the enhancement of ZnO sensing performance.
