Abstract
Heavily Sn-doped In2O3nano-pyramids with a Sn percentage of 19.97% by weight have been prepared by sputtering technique. The nano-pyramids with smooth facets and a sharp tip have been achieved by deposition on Sn-metal particles, leading to a diameter of ∼100nm. The gas sensors realized from these pyramids are highly sensitive to ethanol gas, and the sensitivity is about 133.99 against 200ppm ethanol at 250°C. Good sensitivity characteristics have been obtained even at a low temperature of down to 50°C. The high response and low working temperature demonstrate the potential application of heavily Sn-doped In2O3 nano-pyramids for fabricating gas sensors.
