Article Abstract

The poor selectivity of metal oxide semiconductor sensors is a major constraint to their application in the detection of chemical warfare agents. We prepared a (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO/(Pt+Rh)-WO sensor by using (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO as a catalytic film material and (Pt+Rh)-WO as a gas-sensitive film material. Using temperature dynamic modulation, the (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO/(Pt+Rh)-WO sensor was realised to improve the selectivity for mustard. Due to the catalytic effect of the (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO catalytic film on mustard, mustard was able to be catalytically generated into mustard sulphoxide after passing through the (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO catalytic film. Under a certain temperature dynamic modulation, the mustard concentration on the surface of the (Pt+Rh)-WO gas-sensitive film showed an increase and then a decrease. Since the resistance response of the (Pt+Rh)-WO gas-sensitive film to mustard was much higher than that of mustard sulphoxide, the change in the resistance of the (Pt+Rh)-WO gas-sensitive film was mainly determined by the change in the concentration of mustard, which led to the peak signal in the curve of its resistance response to mustard. The experimental results showed that the (Pt+Pd+Rh)@AlO/(Pt+Rh)-WO sensor had peak signals in the resistance response to mustard only, and not in the resistance response to 12 interfering gases, such as carbon monoxide.

Drunk driving is a major threat to global traffic safety, accounting for 50% to 60% of traffic accidents. To address the bottleneck problem of insufficient selectivity of metal oxide gas sensors in drunk driving detection, this paper proposes an optimization strategy based on the principle of selective extraction and programmed temperature desorption technology. This strategy uses temperature modulation to control the adsorption processes of target gases, solving the cross-interference problem between ethanol and other volatile organic compounds in exhaled breath.

A Pt@CeLaCoNiOx/Co@SnO laminated MOS sensor was prepared using Co@SnO as the gas-sensitive film material and Pt@CeLaCoNiOx as the catalytic film material. The sensor was verified to exhibit good sensing performances for dimethyl methylphosphonate, a simulant of Sarin, under a temperature modulation, and characteristic peaks appeared in the resistance response curves only for dimethyl methylphosphonate. The Article Swarm Optimization-Backpropagation Neural Network had a good ability to identify the resistance response data of dimethyl methylphosphonate.

This paper presents a ZnO-Pt/Ru sensor prepared by a two-step hydrothermal method with in situ-grown ZnO nanorods and doped with Pt and Ru elements by immersion sintering. Characterization results showed that Pt and Ru were successfully modified on the surface of ZnO nanorods. ZnO-Pt/Ru achieved a response of 25-50 ppm HS at the optimum operating temperature of 198 °C.

Poor selectivity is one of the main bottlenecks restricting the development of metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) sensors. In this paper, using hydrogen cyanide (HCN) as the target gas, CeMnOx as the catalytic layer material and Pt@SnO as the gas-sensitive layer material, we have proposed a scheme to improve the selectivity of a catalytic layer/gas-sensitive layer-laminated MOS sensor under dynamic temperature modulation. We tested HCN and 12 kinds of battlefield environment simulation gases, and the results showed that the CeMnOx/Pt@SnO sensor, under the condition of temperature dynamic modulation (a constant temperature of 400 °C for the gas-sensitive layer and a variable temperature of room temperature to 400 °C for the catalytic layer; the heating and cooling rates were 200 °C/s, the highest temperature was maintained for 2 s, and the lowest temperature was maintained for 2 s), distinct characteristic peaks appeared on the G-T curves of the resistance response to HCN only.
