Abstract
Shape controlled preparation and doping are important means to improve the gas sensitivity of metal oxide semiconductor materials. In this work, pure and Co-doped In2O3 porous hollow hexagonal cylinders were successfully prepared using metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) MIL-68(In) as self-sacrificial template. The size of the MIL-68(In) hexagonal cylinder is uniform, and the In2O3 obtained after pyrolysis better inherits the shape of the MIL-68(In), but becomes hollow, and the cylinder surfaces are porous. The product has a large specific surface area (46.52 m2/g), and the doping of Co significantly increases the oxygen vacancy of the material. The Co-doped sample obtained by pyrolysis at 500℃ has excellent gas sensing performances to ethanol gas, its sensitivity to 100 ppm ethanol gas at 210 ℃ is 14.6, response/recovery time is 21 s and 107 s, and the sensing selectivity to ethanol is also good.
