Humidity Sensing Property of Mesoporous Indium Oxide

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, mesoporous indium oxide has been synthesized by the hard template route from the SBA-15 silica template. The results characterized from XRD, and N2 adsorption-desorption demonstrated that the synthesis can be controlled successfully in nanometer (meso-structure) scale. The obtained sample was investigated as humidity sensing material by coating on a ceramic plate, and the humidity sensing performance can be enhanced up to more than three orders of magnitude without any doping. Further testing proved that it is a promising humidity sensing material and can be widely used, and a possible mechanism was also provided.
