Structural and Acetone Sensing Properties of La-Doped Porous In2O3 Nanospheres by Hydrothermal Synthesis

Article Preview

Abstract:

The La-doped porous In2O3 nanospheres were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method, and La3+ accounted for 3 mol% of the In3+. The La exists and has been doped in the lattice of In2O3 characterized respectively by the means of energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), the morphology of the samples with uniform nanospheres observed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Moreover, the sensor exhibits higher response properties compared with pure porous In2O3 nanospheres towards different acetone concentration at operating temperature 300 °C. The response and recovery times is about 13 s and 8 s to 50 ppm acetone.
