摘要
NiFe2O4 nanorods and nanocubes were prepared by a hydrothermal method without any surfactant for the first time. The length and diameter of the nanorods were about 1 mu m and 30 nm, respectively; the side length of the nanocubes was about 60-100 nm. It was found that the sensor based on NiFe2O4 nanorods was relatively sensitive and selective to triethylamine. Especially, the sensitivity to 1 ppm triethylamine attained 7 when operating at 175 degrees C. On the other hand, the sensor based on NiFe2O4 nanocubes exhibited the opposite behavior; namely, the conductivity of the sensor increased in a reducing gas atmosphere.
