It was attempted to investigate the reaction of LB biological membrane in the gas surrounding by the use of LB method. The performance of the experiment was based on the idea that the adhesion of gas molecular on the surface of LB membrane, which induces the change of electrical properties, may make it possible to develop various sensor system modified from the sensor organs. The experimental results showed that for the acetone gas, the frequency changes in the proportional to the concentration of the gas. The reappearance of the gas reaction vs. frequency change was also able to be obtained properly.

Tin dioxide nanoparticles are prepared using a newly developed synthesis method of plasma-assisted electrolysis. A high voltage is applied to the tin metal plate to apply a high pressure and temperature to the synthesized oxide layer on the metal surface, producing nanoparticles in a low concentration of sulfuric acid. The particle size, morphology, and size distribution is controlled by the concentration of electrolytes and frequency of the power supply. The as-prepared powder of tin dioxide nanoparticles is used to fabricate a gas sensor to investigate the potential application. The particle-based gas sensor exhibits a short response and recovery time. There is sensitivity to the reduction gas for the gas flowing at rates of 50, 250, and 500 ppm of $H_2S$ gas.

This study reports the H2S gas sensing properties of CuO / ZnO nano-hetero structure bundle and the investigation of gas sensing mechanism. The 1-Dimensional ZnO nano-structure was synthesized by hydrothermal method and CuO / ZnO nano-heterostructures were prepared by photo chemical reaction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra confirmed a well-crystalline ZnO of hexagonal structure. In order to improve the H2S gas sensing properties, simple type of gas sensor was fabricated with ZnO nano-heterostructures, which were prepared by photo-chemical deposition of CuO on the ZnO nanorods bundle. The furnace type gas sensing system was used to characterize sensing properties with diluted H2S gas (50 ppm) balanced air at various operating temperature up to 500$^{\circ}C$. The H2S gas response of ZnO nanorods bundle sensor increased with increasing temperature, which is thought to be due to chemical reaction of nanorods with gas molecules. Through analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the sensing mechanism of ZnO nanorods bundle sensor was explained by well-known surface reaction between ZnO surface atoms and hydrogen sulfide. However at high sensing temperature, chemical conversion of ZnO nanorods becomes a dominant sensing mechanism in current system. Photo-chemically fabricated CuO/ZnO heteronanostructures show higher gas response and higher current level than ZnO nanorods bundle. The gas sensing mechanism of the heteronanostructure can be explained by the chemical conversion of sensing material through the reaction with H2S gas.

Carbon nanotubes(CNTs) were synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD) method. To fabricate CNT gas sensor, catalyst metal layer was deposited on microstructure. The CNT gas detecting layer was grown by thermal CVD method on the catalyst metal layer. In order to investigate the gas sensing characteristics of the fabricated CNT gas sensor, it was exposed in NO$_2$ gas and sensitivity, response, and recovery time were measured. As the result, this sensor has better reproductibility and faster recovery time than another CNT gas sensors.

Pt, Pd, In 등의 촉매금속을 사용하여 아세토나이트릴 유독가스에 대한 감도를 향상시키는 SnO2 가스센스에 대하여 연구하였다. Metal-SnO2 후막은 백금전극이 내장된 알루미나 지지체의 스크린법으로 제작되었다. 본 센서의 특성은 검출가스의 농도의 함수로 반응기내 각센서의 전기적 저항을 측정하여 조사하였으며, 10-50ppm 범위의 유독가스 농도에 대하여 검지 측정하였다. 그 결과 촉매금속의 종류에 따라 센서에서 반응하는 감도가 각각 다르게 선택성을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) has been extensively studied as the active material in ammonia gas sensor because of its fast response time, high conductivity and environmental stability. It is well known that a post annealing process for organic devices based on PEDOT:PSS significantly increases the device performance. In this study, we propose the solvent annealing of PEDOT:PSS and investigated its effects. As a results, post solvent annealing on PEDOT:PSS lead to the surface chemical and physical properties change. These changes result in improved conductivity of the PEDOT:PSS. In additional, ammonia sensitivity of solvent annealed PEDOT:PSS become higher than pristine polymer film. The enhancement is mainly caused by the depletion of gas barrier PSS and structural re-forming PEDOT networks. We believe that the post solvent annealing is a promising method to achieve highly sensitivity PEDOT:PSS films for applications in efficient, low-cost and flexible ammonia gas sensor.

가스 설비의 증가와 함께 가스 사용시 안전관리가 중요해 지고 있다. 그 일환으로 국가적인 차원에서 U-safety 시스템 도입이 추진되고 있으며, 이를 위해서는 실시간으로 현장에서 가스 누출에 대한 검지가 가능해야 한다. 탄화수소류로 주로 구성된 가스의 누출 감지는 열저항을 이용하는 방식이지만, 도관에 함께 매설될 시에는 폭발 가능성으로 인해 적용이 불가하다. 이에 상온에서 메탄이나 일산화탄소와 같은 탄화수소류를 전기화학적 촉매 반응으로 검지할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 다공성 골드 분말을 팰렛 형태로 제조하여 백금 나노입자를 전해 도금법으로 도핑하여, CO의 $CO_2$ 산화 반응을 유도할 수 있는 촉매 전극을 제조하였다. Pt/PAu 전극의 경우, 약 21%의 CO 전환률을 보여서 탄화수소류의 상온 촉매전환과 함께 전기화학적 센싱이 가능함을 보였다. 이는 추후 메탄 가스 검지에 적용할 수 있는 여지를 마련했다고 판단된다.

Carbon nanotubes(CNT) have excellent electrical, chemical stability and mechanical properties. These can be used in a variety of fields. MWCNT are extremely sensitive for minute changes in the ambient gas, namely, their sensing properties varies greatly with the absorption of gas such as NOx and $H_2$. We investigate the electrical properties of CNTs and make a NOx gas sensor based on Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) materials. We obtained the NOx gas sensor of MWCNT based on P-type Si wafer that has the resistivity of $1.667{\times}10^{-1}[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$. We knew that the sensitivity of sensor decreased with increasing of NOx gas concentration. And the sensitivity of sensor shows the largest value at $20^{\circ}C$. The sensitivity of sensor decrease with increasing the temperature. Also absorption energy of NOx gas molecule on the MWCNT surface decreases with increasing concentration of NOx gas.

In this study, we fabricated an $NO_X$ gas sensor using a composite film of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)/zinc oxide (ZnO). Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) show good electronic conductivity and chemical-stability, and zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide band gap semiconductor with a large exciton binding energy. Gas sensors require characteristics such as high speed, sensitivity, and selectivity. The fabricated gas sensor was used to detect $NO_X$ gas at different $NO_X$ concentrations. The sensitivity of the gas sensor increased with increasing gas concentrations. Additionally, while changing the temperature inside the chamber containing the MWCNT/ZnO gas sensor, we obtained the sensitivity and normalized responses for detecting $NO_X$ gas in comparison to ZnO and MWCNT film gas sensors. From the experimental results, we confirmed that the gas sensor sensing mechanism was enhanced in the composite-film gas-sensor and that the electronic interaction between MWCNT and ZnO contributed to the improved sensor performance.
