摘要
A solid-state chemical reaction with the assistance of Ag/C nanocables was implemented for the preparation of Ag/ZnO nanorods. This is the first time Ag/ZnO nanorods are fabricated by using Ag/C cables as template. Compared with the traditional organic surfactant, Ag/C cable is a new and effective template to control the shape of precursors in the solid-state reaction under ambient conditions. The results of systematical gas-sensing studies demonstrate that the sensor based on Ag/ZnO nanorod materials has high sensitivity, good selectivity and short response and reversion time to ethanol. It demonstrates that Ag/ZnO nanorods can be used as gas-sensing material. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.
