Summary: | © 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Ultra-sensitive H 2 S gas sensors based on the hydrothermal/impregnation-synthesized WO 3 one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures functionalized with Ru are presented. The particle properties were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, TEM and EDS analyses. The H 2 S-sensing performances in terms of sensor response, response/recovery times and selectivity were optimized by varying Ru concentration. The optimal sensing film (0.50 wt% Ru-WO 3 ) showed an ultra-high sensor response of ∼192 and short response time of ∼0.8 s to 10 ppm of H 2 S at 350 C. In addition, 0.50 wt% Ru-WO 3 nanorods (NRs) exhibited much higher H 2 S selectivity against NO 2 , SO 2 , C 2 H 5 OH and NH 3 compared with unloaded WO 3 NRs. Furthermore, the catalyst selectivity of Ru toward H 2 S was found to be significantly higher than those of three other metals including Ni, Nb and A u, respectively. Therefore, 0.50 wt% Ru-WO 3 sensor is one of the most promising candidates for highly sensitive and selective detection of H 2 S. |
