摘要
Nanosize films of In2O3:Ga2O3 (96:4 weight %) have been deposited on a glassceramic substrate by the method of rf magnetron sputtering. The surfaces of fabricated films were studied with use of a scanning electron microscope; sizes of grains were determined and the thicknesses of films were measured. In order to prepare a gas-sensitive structure, a thin catalytic palladium layer and ohmic comb contacts were deposited on the In2O3:Ga2O3 film surface by the method of ion-plasma sputtering. The sensitivity of sensors based on the glassceramic/In2O3:Ga2O3 (96:4 weight %)/Pd structure to different concentrations of propane and butane gas mixture, as well as to methane was investigated at temperatures of working substance from 250 to 300A degrees C.
