| Abstract | A composite metal-oxide-semiconductor sensor array based on tungsten oxide (WO3) and zinc oxide (ZnO) was fabricated using a simple mechanical mixing method. The array was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and tested against a variety of oxidizing and reducing gases at various operating temperatures in the range of 300°C-500°C. It was found that the composites generally had an enhanced response to the analytes. The largest observed response toward ethanol was of a 50 wt.%:50 wt.% WO3:ZnO sensor, which displayed a response of 36 toward 100 ppm of the analyte at 350°C, a 1.5-fold enhancement compared with a pure WO3 sensor and a 6.5-fold compared with a pure ZnO sensor. A 10 wt.%:90 wt.% WO3:ZnO composition displayed the highest response of 148 toward 800 ppb NO2 at 300°C, a 3.5-fold enhancement with respect to a pure WO3 sensor and a 7-fold with respect to a pure ZnO sensor. Cross sensitivity studies toward a variety of reducing gases at 350°C, showed selectivity of the array towards ethanol. The enhanced behavior of the mixed oxide materials was influenced by the packing structure, junction effects, composition, and microstructure. The results show that it is possible to tune the sensitivity and selectivity of a composite sensor, through a simple change in the compositional contribution of each metal oxide. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
