Based on the spectral absorption, The wideband light source is used to reflect two narrowband spectra by fiber grating of different duty. and piezoelectric ceramics to obtain narrowband output light. The high sensitivity detection can be measured from the second harmonic signal. The two narrowband spectra are corresponding to the absorption spectra of NH3 and CO. Concentration detection are realized by the detection of variety of light intensity. Sensitivity is proved and cost is reduced.展开更多

Copper chloride （CuC1） was mixed with SWNT by mechanical blending. The thin film was deposited on interdigitated electrodes by using airbrush technology. This paper described the fabrication of the sensor for detecting carbon monoxide with concentrations from 20 ppm to 100 ppm. The performance of CO gas sensor was measured by using relevant apparatus to obtain the continuous sensor electric resistance change on exposure to CO and air atmosphere at room temperature, respectively. The results exhibited that the senor presented a larger sensitivity and a good recoverability. The experimental results suggested the potential use of CuC1 doped SWCNT for CO detecting.展开更多
