摘要
The oxygen gas sensing performance of Ga2O3 semiconducting thin films doped with Ce, Sb, W and Zn have been investigated. These thin films have been prepared by the sol-gel process and were deposited on sapphire transducers with inter-digital electrodes and a platinum heater integrated. The sensors were exposed to various concentrations of oxygen gas in an ambient of nitrogen and the gas sensing performance has been examined. The responses of sensors doped with Ce, Sb, W and Zn were stable and reproducible at their respective operating temperatures. It was observed that Ga2O3 films doped with Ce, Zn and W are promising for oxygen gas sensing applications. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
