摘要
Novel gas sensing devices based on a porous platinum (Pt) metaloxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) have been fabricated. The catalytic properties of the porous Pt surface for hydrogen (H-2) enhance the gas detection sensitivity of the MOSFET gas sensor. The threshold voltage decreases rapidly as time increases when the device is exposed to H-2 gas. It was possible to detect 22ppm of H-2 gas with a response time of < 2min at a device temperature of 27 degrees C. The gas sensitivity could be enhanced to similar to 10 times higher than that of an unmodified Pt surface.
