Summary: | Detection of hydrogen is crucial for industrial process control and medical
applications where the presence of hydrogen in breath indicates a different type of
health problems particularly in infants. In recent years, interest in breath analysis for
clinical purposes has increased. As the demand for hydrogen sensors and hydrogen
analyzers grows, a better performed sensor with high sensitivity would be critical
especially for medical applications. The titanium dioxide nanotube structure is
chosen as an active component in the gas sensor because of its highly sensitive
electrical resistance to hydrogen over a wide range of concentrations. The objective of
the work is to fabricate and develop good quality titania nanotubes with specific
characteristics as the sensing element for detection of very low concentration of
hydrogen. |
