Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of trace gas leak detection, specifically to a highly sensitive and fast-response hydrogen sensor based on palladium single-atom doping, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrogen, as a clean and efficient energy carrier, shows broad application prospects in fuel cell vehicles, distributed power generation, and industrial decarbonization. However, hydrogen is colorless, odorless, flammable, and explosive, with an explosive concentration range of 4%-75% and an ignition energy as low as 0.02 mJ. Even trace leaks throughout the entire production, storage, transportation, and use chain can cause serious safety accidents. Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors, represented by indium oxide and tin oxide, have attracted much attention due to their low cost, fast response, and ease of integration. However, in the detection of trace hydrogen, these types of sensors... The sensor still faces bottlenecks: pure indium oxide typically requires temperatures above 200°C to obtain a significant signal in response to hydrogen, and high-temperature operation not only increases power consumption but also poses potential safety hazards; the adsorption-dissociation-reaction process of hydrogen molecules on the surface of pure indium oxide requires overcoming high activation energy, resulting in long response times (typically >30s) and recovery times (typically >60s), making it difficult to meet the rapid monitoring requirements for trace hydrogen leaks; pure semiconductor surfaces lack selectivity for reducing gases and are easily interfered with by coexisting gases such as ethanol, methane, and carbon monoxide, making it difficult to achieve highly selective detection of trace hydrogen.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, researchers have extensively explored noble metal particle modification strategies. Introducing noble metals such as palladium into indium oxide substrates in nanoparticle form can leverage their catalytic activity to promote hydrogen adsorption and accelerate the sensing reaction through the hydrogen spillover effect. However, traditional palladium nanoparticle modification strategies have inherent limitations: the hydrogen spillover effect occurs only in a few palladium atoms on the particle surface, while a large number of palladium atoms located inside the particles cannot contact hydrogen molecules and are unlikely to participate in the catalytic spillover reaction. Although the introduction of noble metal particles effectively promotes the hydrogen adsorption process, their strong adsorption of hydrogen atoms restricts the spillover efficiency, resulting in limited sensitivity and response speed. Nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration and sintering under high-temperature operating conditions, leading to the decay of active sites and affecting the long-term stability of the sensor. In view of this, we propose a highly sensitive and fast-response hydrogen sensor based on palladium single-atom doping, along with its fabrication method and applications. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a highly sensitive and fast-response hydrogen sensor based on palladium single-atom doping, its preparation method, and its application. The aim is to dope palladium metal in indium oxide in single-atom form using a solution precipitation method combined with high-temperature annealing, obtaining a palladium single-atom doped indium oxide composite material. This preparation method anchors the noble metal to the carrier surface in the form of isolated atoms, exposing each atom to the reaction interface, improving atom utilization. Furthermore, the atomically dispersed active sites facilitate hydrogen adsorption, dissociation, and overflow, thereby shortening the hydrogen response time, increasing the hydrogen detection limit, and achieving rapid response and highly sensitive detection of trace hydrogen.

[0032] Comparative Example 1: The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that a palladium nanoparticle-doped indium oxide sensor is used.
[0033] A highly sensitive and fast-response hydrogen sensor based on palladium-doped indium oxide composite material was prepared. Its resistance was altered by reacting with various gases, and the sensor's response was defined as a ratio (…). / ),in The sensor resistance value in the air. The sensor resistance value in the target gas; simultaneously, the sensor response time ( ) and recovery time ( The time elapsed for the sensor resistance to reach 90% of the total resistance change under both adsorption and desorption conditions was determined.
[0034] The selectivity of palladium single-atom doped sensors for hydrogen is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0035] Figure 1 The results show that the palladium single-atom doped indium oxide composite material exhibits a very high gas response value to hydrogen, which is much higher than the response values to other gases such as sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, proving that the sensor has high selectivity for hydrogen.
[0036] The response recovery time of the palladium single-atom doped hydrogen sensor and the palladium nanoparticle doped sensor (Comparative Example 1) to 50 ppm hydrogen is compared as shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown.
[0037] Figure 2 It can be seen that the palladium single-atom doped indium oxide sensor responds rapidly to hydrogen gas, with a response time of only 3s and a recovery time of 20s, which is significantly better than the palladium nanoparticle doped indium oxide sensor with a response time of 9s and a recovery time of 54s.
