摘要
In this paper a new method of preparing an H-2 sensor, based on an SnO2(Bi2O3) thin film, is presented. The deposition process of a tin and bismuth metallic film and its rapid thermal oxidation are described. SnO2 thin films, doped with 5 at.% Bi, show a maximum sensitivity (defined as S = DELTA-G/G%) equal to 15 000% for an air flow plus 1000 ppm H-2 at an operating temperature of 400-degree-C. An explanation of the mechanisms related to the formation of surface porosity, responsible for the high sensitivity of thin films to H-2, is given.
