초록

${\gamma}$-ray radiolysis was used to functionalize networked ZnO nanowires with Au nanoparticles. The networked ZnO nanowires were prepared through a vapor phase selective growth method. The sensing performances of the Au-functionalized ZnO nanowires were investigated in terms of $NO_2$, CO and benzene gases. The Au-funtionalized ZnO nanowire sensors showed an applicable, reliable capability to detect the gases, indicating their potential in chemical gas sensors.
