Improving the Performance of Hydrogen Sensors with Novel TiO2 Nanotube Arrays Hybrid Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a kind of novel TiO2 nanotube arrays (TNTs) hybrid structure was presented to improve the performance of hydrogen sensors. In this novel structure, palladium functionalized TNTs hybrid nanostructure supported on titanium wire. TNTs arrays was prepared by anodizing Ti wire using a standard electrochemical procedure. Pd nanomaterials were deposited on TNTs. Optimized experiments showed the hydrogen sensor supported on titanium wire showed a good response time of 8 s and high sensitivity of 94.8% at 1.9 vol% H2 at room temperature (25 °C). The research work revealed potential good hydrogen sensitivity of this kind of hybrid nanostructure.
