Improving the ozone gas-sensing properties of CuWO4 nanoparticles
2018
Abstract This paper consists of an experimental investigation on the effects of annealing temperature on the structural, surface and ozone gas-sensing properties of CuWO 4 nanoparticles prepared via a sonochemical route. X-ray diffraction patterns and X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy revealed that both long- and short-order structures increase with the annealing temperature. Electrical resistance measurements indicated that CuWO 4 samples were sensitive in the range of 15–1400 ppb, exhibiting a good reversibility and repeatability. The enhancement of the ozone gas-sensing properties was attributed to the reduction of hydroxyl species and the improvement of the crystallization degree. This study provides a versatile strategy for obtaining CuWO 4 nanoparticles for practical applications as an ozone gas sensor.
