Abstract
Nanoparticles of cupric oxide and tin oxide are synthesized via liquid-phase method. The samples are prepared in the form of multilayer thick films by screen printing technique having based of alumina, samples having different mol % of tin oxide and copper oxide.
CO2 gas concentration increases from 600 ppm to 1500 ppm, there is little increase of sensitivity, from 600 ppm to 1100 ppm, sensitivity increases linearly and becomes maximum at 1100 ppm. With further increase in CO2 gas concentration, sensitivity increases by little amount. The XRD pattern of (CuO-SnO2) system samples show nanocrystalline form and found the desired peaks of composites. FESEM study reveals that the grain size of nanometer order and shows nano- porous structure, which leads to exhibit large surface area, stability and highest response to CO2 gas. The response time is faster than recovery time. The sample A3 sensor (15CuO:85SnO2) offers high sensitivity, rapid response and recovery to CO2 gas.
