[0026] The preparation method of tin oxide room temperature gas sensor comprises the steps:

[0027] S1: Deposit a layer of metal tin film with a thickness of 400-1200 nanometers on a clean alumina substrate, and polish the surface of the metal tin film; among them, the method of magnetron sputtering can be used on a clean alumina substrate Metal tin film deposited on; SiO can be used 2 The polishing liquid polishes the surface of the film. If the film deposited by magnetron sputtering is too thin, the film will be discontinuous; if it is too thick, the film will not be fully oxidized; if the oxidation voltage is too low, the film will not be oxidized or oxidized too slowly; if it is too high, the film structure will be damaged due to excessive oxidation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a tin oxide room-temperature gas-sensitive element and its preparation method. The method comprises the following steps: 1, depositing a metal tin film having a thickness of 400-1200nm on a clean alumina substrate, and polishing the surface of the metal tin film; 2, placing an anode which is the alumina substrate deposited with the metal tin film and a cathode which is a titanium sheet in an electrolyte solution, oxidizing by applying a 5-12V direct-current voltage on two ends of the cathode and the anode to form an oxide film of tin, cleaning the surface of the oxide film of tin with deionized water, and naturally drying; 3, carrying out thermal treatment of the oxide film of tin to obtain a tin oxide film; and 4, coating a silver slurry on the tin oxide film, and sintering to obtain the gas-sensitive element. The preparation method adopts anode oxidation before the film sintering to form a porous structure is benefit for the gas diffusion and the gas adsorption, so the contact surface of a material with a gas is increased, and the sensitivity and the response time of the gas-sensitive element are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of gas sensitive materials and components, and more specifically relates to a tin oxide room temperature gas sensitive component and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Gas sensors are widely used in environmental protection, industrial production, health and safety, and medical diagnosis and other fields. Compared with other oxide gas-sensing materials, tin oxide has a lower working temperature and higher stability, and can realize reliable detection of various flammable, explosive and toxic gases at a lower cost. Taking the detection of hydrogen sulfide gas as an example, the previous tin oxide gas sensor needs to work in the range of 150~300°C, and its higher working temperature wastes energy on the one hand, reduces portability, and increases safety hazards , It is not conducive to use in special environments such as underground. For this reason, a gas sensor with high sensitivi...
