NiO nanosheet-assembled chemiresistive sensor for NO2 detection
摘要
This paper presents the deposition of nickel oxide (NiO) nanosheets at 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, and 0.125 M solution concentrations by using economical approach of chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique. X-ray diffraction analysis verifies that NiO is polycrystalline with a cubic phase. For NiO film prepared at 0.1 M, FE-SEM and AFM analysis reveals the formation of porous micro-structured morphology of randomly oriented nanosheets and the surface roughness of 62.1 nm, respectively. XPS analysis reveals Ni2+ oxidation state in Ni-2p spectra corresponding to the NiO with binding energy peaks at 854.2, 873.1, and 879.8 eV andNi3+ at 855.7 and 861.2 eV for Ni2O3.NiO nanosheets sensing performance evaluated at sensing conditions of 200 °C to 100 ppm NO2showed32.2% response with
