In this work, hexagonal In2O3 nanosheets with decorated Au nanoparticles were synthesized and used as a sensor for NH3 detection. The sensor exhibited high response and fast response/recovery time at room temperature, as well as good repeatability stability and high selectivity. The excellent sensing behavior was attributed to the synergistic effect of nanosheets structure, Au nanoparticles-enhanced surface chemisorption, and the Schottky barrier. These synthesized hexagonal Au-In2O3 nanosheets provide a new candidate for exclusive NH3 detection at room temperature.
Ammonia (NH3) plays a key role in environmental protection and human health. Therefore, selective de-tection of NH3 at low temperature is of great significance for environmental monitoring and daily life. In this work, hexagonal In2O3 nanosheets with the thickness of about 35 nm are facilely synthesized from the In-BTC precursors. Then, well-dispersed spherical gold (Au) nanoparticles with diameter of about 10 nm are simultaneously decorated on surface of the In2O3 nanosheets. The sensor based on hexagonal Au-In2O3 nanosheets displayed the highest response (Ra/Rg = 21.42) to 20 ppm NH3 gas at room temperature with the fast response/recovery time of 8/18 s. Meanwhile, the sensor exhibited good repeatability stability and high selectivity towards NH3 among other test gases. The excellent room temperature sensing behavior is as-cribed to synergistic effect of nanosheets structure, Au nanoparticles-enhanced surface chemisorption of oxygen species, and the Schottky barrier. The synthesized hexagonal Au-In2O3 nanosheets provide a new candidate for exclusive NH3 detection at room temperature. (c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
