ABSTRACTA nicrofabricated silicon-based chemical gas sensor with a discontinuous film of Pt / TiOx, as the active sensing component has been characterized by atomic force microscopy, environmental scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. A study of the device's multilayer structure and of the thin sensing film is undertaken to understand and control the sensing properties of the metal / semiconducting materials. The purpose of this research is to advance the understanding of the conduction mechanism and provide a basis for optimizing the sensing properties and microstructure of the sensing device.

Hybrid materials made of wide band gap semiconductors and dye molecules are largely studied mainly for photovoltaic applications. However, these materials also show interesting chemical sensitivity. Zinc oxides (ZnO) and porphyrins are good examples of a metal oxide semiconductor and a dye molecule that give rise to a hybrid material with such interesting properties. ZnO has been studied for sensors, optoelectronics, electronic devices, photo-anodes for dye-sensitized solar cells, and for mechanical energy harvesting. Porphyrins, on the other side, can be synthesized in order to mimic their roles in living systems such as oxygen transport and charge transfer for catalytic processes in animals and photosynthesis in plants. This paper provides a review of the chemical sensing properties of porphyrin-capped ZnO nanostructures. The methodologies to functionalize the ZnO surface with porphyrins are illustrated with emphasis on the relationships between the material preparation and its sensing properties. The development of sensors is described through the application of the hybrid materials to different transducers.

For filler composite systems used in strain sensor applications, piezoresistive effect, strain hysteresis, and repeatability are critical factors, which have to be clearly evaluated and understood. To investigate the effects of the aspect ratio and content of a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) on the strain sensor properties of the composite, MWCNT/Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composites with varying filler contents and aspect ratios were fabricated. In order to uniformly disperse MWCNTs on the polymer matrix, we used a three-roll milling method to generate high shear force for de-bundling MWCNTs. Mechanical and electrical properties of the MWCNT composites were evaluated for each case. In addition, through the cyclic stretching test, we optimized the strain-sensing properties of the MWCNT composites by considering their piezoresistive effects and strain hysteresis.

In this work, nanoscale SnO2with various geometrical morphologies, including pine needle-like, sphere-like, sheet-like, grape-like nanostructures, was prepared via a facile hydrothermal process. Microstructures and morphologies of all the as-synthesized products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Meanwhile, the specific surface areas of the as-prepared SnO2nanostructures were determined by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. Gas sensors were fabricated and their gas sensing properties towards hydrogen were systematically investigated. The results indicate pine needle-like SnO2structure exhibits exclusive better gas sensing performances to hydrogen than the other morphologies, which can be attributed to its novel shape with a large specific surface area. Such an unexpected morphology is a promising candidate for the use of SnO2as a gas sensing material in future hydrogen sensor applications.

Magnetic fluid (MF) is a new functional material researched in recent years. It has lots of properties such as superparamagnetism, high permeability, first-order and second-order buoyancy principle suitable for sensor application. The sensing properties decide the sensor applications of magnetic fluid. Different application sensors such as pressure differential sensor, acceleration sensor, and angle sensor were demonstrated and the working principles were presented.
