Ultrasensitive NH3 Gas Sensor from Polyaniline Nanograin Enchased TiO2 Fibers

Abstract: In this communication, we reported for the first time an ultrasensitive nanostructrued sensor that can detect 50 ppt of NH 3 gas in air. Specifically, nanograins of a p-type conductive polymer, polyaniline (PANI), are enchased on an electrospun n-type semiconductive TiO 2 fiber surface. The resistance of the p-n heterojunctions combining with the bulk resistance of PANI nanograins can function as electric current switches when NH 3 gas is absorbed by PANI nanoparticles. As a result, the sensor sensitivity can … Show more

“…Polyaniline in its forms (see Fig. 1) emeraldine base (PANI EB) or salt (PANI ES) are most widely used ICPs because of its ease of synthesis, high chemical and environmental stability and tunable properties [6,[9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…Gas chromatography is mainly used as offline experiment, and spectroscopy is only in the stage of laboratory study and has a long way for practical application. With the advantages of simple manufacture technique, low cost, long life, rapid response, and recovery time, semiconductor SnO 2 may be the most promising sensing technology for detecting and recognizing dissolved fault characteristic gases in transformer oil [12][13][14][15]. However, some limitations, like high operating temperature, unsatisfactory selectivity, and poor long-term stability, are still needed to be further improved [16][17][18][19][20][21].…”
