摘要
Gas sensor materials of bismuth tungstate and bismuth iron tungstate were prepared. Sintered bismuth iron tungstate gas sensors have a high sensitivity and selectivity to ethanol and acetone, show long-term stability of response under most operating conditions and insensitivity to atmospheric humidity and respond more quickly in relative case. The changes of the sensors in conductance are mediated by oxygen vacancy donors which caused by the direct reduction. Also, they are highly mobile and can quickly diffuse through the sample, thereby having a direct effect on the electronic carrier density. The phase composition and structure of these gas sensor materials were investigated by XRD technique.
