$NiO,\;Cu_2O,\;Mn_2O_3$ and $Cr_2O_3$ as p-type semiconductors were added in CoO with 15 wt.% ethylene glycol binder and measured the butane gas sensing characteristics. The highest sensitivity is obtained for the NiO-CoO sensors. CoO-20 at.% NiO sensor with 15 wt.% ethylene glycol binder sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 24 h exhibits high sensitivity of 90 % to 5000 ppm butane gas at the sensor temperature of $250^{\circ}C$, compared to low sensitivities at the low operating temperature for commercial sensors. Response and recovery times are, respectively, within few seconds and 1min in the static flow system, indicating rapid adsorption and desorption of butane gas on sensor surface even at this low temperature.

$SnO_2$ powders were prepare by precipitating $Sn(OH)_4$ from an aqueous solution of $SnCl_4{\cdot}5H_2O$, pH 9.5. The effects of stability and sensitivity of $SnO_2$ thick film sensors added with various amounts, $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$, $TiO_2$ have been investigated. It is shown that the 3wt% $Al_2O_3$ or $SiO_2$ can improve the stability of $SnO_2$ gas sensor at an operating temperature of $350^{\circ}C$.

A new mathematical model to determine the optimal gas temperatures in reheating furnace was proposed for the good quality of products. This model employs sensitivity method to calculate the optimal gas temperatures in each zone for heating the slab up to its discharging target temperature and for heating it uniformly. This method was validated by showing that the calculated discharging temperature of the slab was in a good agreement with its prescribed discharging target one through an off-line simulation.

The WO3 thin-film NOx sensor which is of practical use and includes the heater and the temperature sensor was fabricated. The WO3 thin films as a gas-sensing layer was deposited at ambient temperature in a high-vacuum resistance heated evaporator. The highest sensitivity of the WO3 thin-film sensor to NOx was obtained under the condition of the annealing temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$ and the operating temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$. The gas sensing characteristics of this sensor was excellent, i.e. high sensitivity (Rgas/Rair in 3 ppm NO2=53) and fast response time (4 seconds).

The maleate copolyrner($C_{18}MA-VE_2$) is used as sensitive materials and deposited on the slide-glass substrates at room temperature using Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) method. The results of current-time(1-t) measurements are performed to investigate the gas-detection characteristics of the sensitive LB films in the presence of organic gases just as chloroform, acetone, ethanol, methanol using the apparatus for the gas-detection measurement. Several interesting responses are observed at room temperature, such as reversible response, sensitivity and response time. Response time and sensitivities are evaluated 160~220[sec], minimum 6[times], maximum 70[times] for each organic gas by adsorption and penetration of the organic gases in the relation concentration of 100[%], respectively.

In this study, we analyzed the LPG and LNG sensitivity measurement and voltage variation using catalytic type gas sensor characteristics in catalytic combustion type gas detecter sensors. gas detector shall operate as intended when exposed for 24 hours to air having a relative humidity of 0~85 percent at a temperature of $20[{\mu}m]$ and humidity of 45 percent at a temperature of $-10{\sim}40[^{\circ}C]$ the gas detecter sensors are to be subjected to operation for 210 days in an area that has been detemined to be equivalent to a typical residential atmosphere with an air velocity of 50 [cm/sec]. The source of energy for a gas detector sensors employing a supplementary basic circuit is energized from a separate source of supply direct applied voltage 2.1[V], 2.2[V], 2.3[V]. As a result, it was confirmed that the relative humidity and temperature by regression each analysis, compared to the LPG characteristic graph and methane characteristics graph by a relative humidity of 0 ~ 85 [%] at a temperature range of $-10{\sim}40[^{\circ}C]$ show a similar linear pattern on the whore.

Activated carbon fiber (ACF) surfaces are modified using an electron beam under different aqueous solutions to improve the NO gas sensitivity of a gas sensor based on ACFs. The oxygen functional group on the ACF surface is changed, resulting in an increase of the number of non-carbonyl (-C-O-C-) groups from 32.5% for pristine ACFs to 39.53% and 41.75% for ACFs treated with hydrogen peroxide and potassium hydroxide solutions, respectively. We discover that the NO gas sensitivity of the gas sensor fabricated using the modified ACFs as an electrode material is increased, although the specific surface area of the ACFs is decreased because of the recovery of their crystal structure. This is attributed to the static electric interaction between NO gas and the non-carbonyl groups introduced onto the ACF surfaces.

Gas sensitizations of tin oxide film were investigated by measuring the change of film resistance in various gas atmospheres such as $N_2,\; O_2,\; H_2O$. The main test sample, polycrystalline $SnO_2$ film containing small Sb as a dopant was prepared by a sputtering technique and showed a long term stability in base resistance and thus, in gas sensitivity. The adsorption of oxygen on the film surface as a type of $(O_{ads})$ at the temperature of around $300^{\circ}C$ played important roles in sensor operating mechanism. The roles were ⅰ) the increase of base resistance in ambient air, which consequently lead to high sensitivity and ⅱ) the promotion of fast recovery. The reaction of hydrogen gas with the already adsorbed $(O_{ads})$ ions was considered as a decisive sensitization mechanism of tin oxide film. However, the dissociation of hydrogen molecules on film surface, by direct donation of electron to film also took a major part in the sensitization. The effect of humidity on gas sensitization was found to be negligible at the sensor operating temperature of around $300^{\circ}C$.

고온용 마이크로 전자소자를 이용한 일산화탄소 가스센서를 개발하였다. 100-300℃의 영역에서 가스 감지 특성을 조사하였다. 센서의 가스 감도는 높고, 감지속도는 빠르고 센서는 재현성을 보여 주었다. Pt-SiC 및 Pt-SnO₂ 다이오드는 표준 반도체 공정을 이용하여 제작하였다. CO 가스 감지 특성은 정상상태 및 과도 상태의 조건아래에서 Ⅰ-Ⅴ 및 △Ⅰ-t법을 이용하여 CO 가스 농도와 온도의 함수로서 분석하였다. Pt-SnO₂촉매 층을 갖는 소자의 가스 감도가 Pt 게이트만으로 이루어진 소자보다 높았다. 실험 결과는 SnO₂층이 Pt막의 촉매 반응을 향상시키는 것을 보여주었다.

Synthesizing low-dimensional structures of oxide semiconductors is a promising approach to fabricate highly efficient gas sensors by means of possible enhancement in surface-to-volume ratios of their sensing materials. In this work, vertically aligned zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods are successfully synthesized on a transparent glass substrate via seed-mediated hydrothermal synthesis method with the use of a ZnO nanoparticle seed layer, which is formed by thermally oxidizing a sputtered Zn metal film. Structural and optical characterization by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Raman spectroscopy reveals the successful preparation of the ZnO nanorods array of the single hexagonal wurtzite crystalline phase. From gas sensing measurements for the nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) gas, the vertically aligned ZnO nanorod array is observed to have a highly responsive sensitivity to NO₂ gas at relatively low concentrations and operating temperatures, especially showing a high maximum sensitivity to NO₂ at 250 ℃ and a low NO₂ detection limit of 5 ppm in dry air. These results along with a facile fabrication process demonstrate that the ZnO nanorods synthesized on a transparent glass substrate are very promising for low-cost and high-performance NO₂ gas sensors.
