A Space Charge Model for Semiconductor Gas Sensors

A space charge model for semiconductor reduced gas sensors has been roposed and applied to gas sensing mechanism. SnO2-x and SnO2-x/Pt thin film were deposited by vacuum evaporating method. And Hall effect and gas sensitivity characteristics of these sensors were measured. From the space charge model and carrier concentration, the number of the adsorbed gas atom on the solid surface was calculated quantitatively. The gas sensing model was compared with CO gas sensitivities of the fabricated thin film gas sensors.
