摘要
采用水热法制备不同Au掺杂浓度的分级多孔WO_3微米球,探讨其作为气敏材料对NO_2气体的气敏特性。利用XRD、SEM、EDS和XPS对制备的WO_3微米球的晶体结构、微观形貌以及元素组成进行结构分析。结果表明:Au掺杂浓度对WO_3微米球的结构和形貌没有明显影响,所获WO_3微米球的直径均为3~5μm,主要由直径为70~90 nm的六方相晶体结构的WO_3纳米棒组成。在相同的检测条件下,Au掺杂浓度为2%(摩尔分数)时,WO_3微米球可获得对NO_2气体的最佳气敏反应特性,且在工作温度50℃时获得最大气体灵敏度,这主要是由于该Au掺杂浓度条件下获得的WO_3微米球具有最小活化能的缘故。通过电子耗尽层理论和贵金属掺杂的化学效应对Au掺杂WO_3微米球的气敏机理进行分析和探讨。
The hierarchical porous WO_3 microspheres with different Au doping concentrations were synthesized by hydrothermal method and investigated as NO_2 sensing materials. The crystal structure, morphology and element composition of WO_3 microspheres were characterized by means of XRD, SEM, EDS and XPS measurements. The results show that the structure and morphology of WO_3 microspheres are not significantly affected by Au doping concentration. The obtained WO_3 microspheres with the diameters of 3-5 μm are assembled by numerous hexagonal nanorods with the diameters of 70-90 nm. 2%(mole fraction) Au-doped WO_3 microspheres obtain the maximal response-recovery properties under the same conditions. The peak response is achieved at operating temperature of 50 ℃ for 2%(mole fraction) Au-doped WO_3 microspheres, which is mainly due to its lowest activation energy. The gas sensing mechanism of Au-doped WO_3 microspheres was discussed in accordance with the electron depletion layer theory and chemical sensitization of noble metal doping.
