  • Title: Toward the nanoscopic "electronic nose": hydrogen vs carbon monoxide discrimination with an array of individual metal oxide nano- and mesowire sensors.

    Journal: Nano Lett; 2006 Aug; 6(8):1584-8. PubMed ID: 16895339.
    Abstract:
    The array of chemiresistors made of individual pristine SnO2, surface doped (Ni)-SnO2 nanowires, and TiO2 and In2O3 mesoscopic whiskers was fabricated on a Si/SiO2 wafer. Their conductance was measured under pulses of H2 and CO reducing gases in oxygen as background gas. The nanostructures were shown to be n-type semiconductors possessing high sensitivity to the target gases. Following the "electronic nose" concept, correlation analysis of response of three-chemiresistor array is shown to be sufficient to discriminate between H2 and CO signals.
