Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas, and environmental pollutant. Its detection and control
in residential and industrial environments are necessary in order to avoid potentially severe …

In this study, the growth of high density single-crystalline ZnO nanowires on patterned ZnO:
Ga/SiO 2/Si templates was reported. We also adsorbed Au nanoparticles onto nanowire …

Nanostructures are considered as chemical systems of high potential owing to their unusual
properties at the interface of those of molecular species and bulk metals. Consequently, they …

Tin oxide as a semiconductor metal oxide has revealed great potential in the field of gas
sensing due to its porous structure and reduced size. Especially for tin oxide and its …

Pd doped SnO 2 nano-particles were synthesized using co-precipitation method. The
resistances of the samples first decrease and then increase, which maybe influenced by the …

Pd-loaded and Fe-doped SnO 2 was prepared by sol–gel method. The composition,
morphology and electrochemical property of the material were characterized by XRD, SEM …
