In particular, spectrophotometric and con-ductivity measurements have been performed in order to determine the optical and electrical properties of titanium oxide thin films. The structure and the morphology of such material have been investigated by X ray diffraction, Scanning microscopy, high resolution electron microscopy and selected area electron diffrac-tion. The X-ray diffraction measurements confirmed that the films grown by this technique have good crys-talline tetragonal mixed anatase and rutile phase structure The HRTEM image of TiO2 thin film showed grains of about 50-60 nm in size with aggregation of 10-15 nm crystallites. Selected area electron diffraction pattern shows that the TiO2 films exhibited tetragonal structure. The surface morphology (SEM) of the TiO2 film showed that the nanoparticles are fine The optical band gap of TiO2 film is 3.26 eV. Gas sensing proper-ties showed that TiO2 films were sensitive as well as fast in responding to NH3. A high sensitivity for ammo-nia indicates that the TiO2 films are selective for this gas.展开更多

These films were characterized for their structural, mor-phological, optoelectronic properties by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UVspectroscopy and four probe method. The CuO films are oriented along (1 1 1) plane with the monoclinic crystal structure. These films were utilized in H2S sensors. The dependence of the H2S response on the operating temperature, H2S concentration of CuO film (annealed at 700。C) was investigated. The CuO film showed selectivity for H2S. The maximum H2S response of 25.2 % for the CuO film at gas concentra-tion of 100 ppm at operating temperature 200oC was achieved.展开更多
