Improved H2S gas sensing properties of ZnO nanorods decorated by a several nm ZnS thin layer
Literature Information
Gaocan Qi, Li Zhang
To avoid a spontaneous reaction between ZnO gas sensing materials and detected H2S gas, ZnO nanorods decorated with a several nm ZnS thin layer were designed. The ZnS-decorated layer was prepared by passivating oriented ZnO nanorods in a H2S atmosphere. The effect of the passivation processes on the H2S sensing properties was investigated. It was found that ZnO nanorods decorated with a 2 nm-thick ZnS layer possessed a repeatable and superior response to ppm-level H2S at room temperature. Moreover, a confinement effect was proposed to explain the improved sensing properties of the decorated ZnO nanorods.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
