摘要
Al doped polycrystalline titanium dioxide was grown by thermal oxidation at 800 degrees C on 0.25 mm thick titanium substrates with gold coating on the back surface. Resistivity, carrier density and mobility were measured at room temperature. The grown oxide showed n-type conductivity. Pd metal dots (1.5 mm dia) were deposited on the oxide surface to fabricate Pd/TiOx/Ti-Au (x < 2) MIM sensor structure. The I-V study was carried out with 500 ppm hydrogen in the temperature range 200-350 degrees C and the current increased upon exposure to hydrogen. The sensitivity and the change in barrier height were calculated and were found to maximize at 300 degrees C beyond which the values started decreasing. The response time as calculated from the transient response characteristics was 16 sec at 300 degrees C.
