Titania Nanostructures Preparation for Gas Sensor Applications

Abstract

The preparation and structural characterization of titanium oxide nanowires as functional materials for the development of chemical sensors is presented in this work. The new types of materials for sensorics, aspects of material preparation relevant for gas sensing applications is presented .The functional characterization is focused on the detection of alcohols. Titanium oxide thin films prepared by solvotermalthermal method in highly alkaline conditions and the performance of 1D nanostructure is compared with mesoporous thin film prepared by sol-gel method.
