One dimensional ZnO nanorod has been extensively studied in sensor application due to its unique properties in direct energy band gap and high binding energy. In this report, ZnO nanorod arrays were synthesized via hydrothermal approach. Highly oriented (002) nanorods array with diameter of (22.42 ± 1.40) nm was successfully grown on the quartz surface. A low cost and room temperature optical based NO sensor was introduced. ZnO nanorods array show a high sensitivity upon the NO gas which is 20.1 % within 3 minutes. This newly established method can be potentially used in detection of other toxicity gas.

A kind of ionization gas sensor based on the polarization structure was designed and manufactured by MEMS technology. The gas sensor device consists of 3 main parts: the anode electrode, the cathode and the distributed polarization structure array which lie between the former two parts. All parts were coated with ZnO nanorods by a two-step hydrothermal method. Different concentration acetone gas was tested using the device. The results support that the ionization gas sensors exhibit reasonable sensitivity and good repeatability at the applied voltages lower than 4V.

ZnO seed layers were deposited on silicon and sapphire substrates by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method, and ZnO nanorod arrays with different orientation degrees were grown using the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Flat-type gas sensors based on the ZnO nanorod arrays were fabricated, and their gas sensitivity properties were studied. The ZnO seed layer with a thickness of approximately 450 nm exhibits high c-axis orientation and possesses few defects. The ZnO nanorods fabricated on both of the substrates grow along the [0001] direction and contain a large number of oxygen vacancy defects. These nanorods have lengths of 8~10 μm and diameters of 200~500 nm. The ZnO nanorods grown on the silicon substrate are perpendicular to the surface of the substrate, and their areal density is approximately 3.0×108/cm2, while those grown on the sapphire substrate exhibit a lower orientation degree, and their areal density is approximately 0.9×108/cm2. The largest response of the gas sensor for gaseous alcohol reaches 48.2, and the optimal operating temperature for all of the sensors is approximately 280 °C. The gas sensitivity property of the silicon-based sensor is superior to that of the sapphire-based sensor, and the corresponding sensing mechanism is discussed.
