Effects of niobium-loading on sulfur dioxide gas-sensing characteristics of hydrothermally prepared tungsten oxide thick film
© 2015 Viruntachar Kruefu et al. Nb-loaded hexagonal WO3nanorods with 0-1.0 wt% loading levels were successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal and impregnation process and characterized for SO2sensing. Nb-loaded WO3sensing films were produced by spin coating on alumina substrate with interdig...
