Berlin Green Framework-Based Gas Sensor for Room-Temperature and High-Selectivity Detection of Ammonia.

ABSTRACT: Ammonia detection possesses great potential in atmosphere environmental protection, agriculture, industry, and rapid medical diagnosis. However, it still remains a great challenge to balance the sensitivity, selectivity, working temperature, and response/recovery speed. In this work, Berlin green (BG) framework is demonstrated as a highly promising sensing material for ammonia detection by both density functional theory simulation and experimental gas sensing investigation. Vacancy in BG framework offers abundant active sites for ammonia absorption, and the absorbed ammonia transfers sufficient electron to BG, arousing remarkable enhancement of resistance. Pristine BG framework shows remarkable response to ammonia at 50-110 °C with the highest response at 80 °C, which is jointly influenced by ammonia's absorption onto BG surface and insertion into BG lattice. The sensing performance of BG can hardly be achieved at room temperature due to its high resistance. Introduction of conductive Ti₃CN MXene overcomes the high resistance of pure BG framework, and the simply prepared BG/Ti₃CN mixture shows high selectivity to ammonia at room temperature with satisfying response/recovery speed.

Fast response paper based visual color change gas sensor for efficient ammonia detection at room temperature.

Project description:We show that a cheap, disposable type rapid paper sensor (working at room temperature) can be made using perovskite halide CH3NH3PbI3 (MAPI) to detect presence of the toxic ammonia gas (NH3)by just color change, where the black colored MAPI film (on the paper) changes to yellow color in presence of a very low concentration of NH3 gas. The sensor can detect presence of NH3 gas in open or closed atmosphere down to around 10 ppm with a response time of nearly 10 sec which decreases to few seconds when the concentration exceeds 20 ppm. The easy to fabricate sensor paper being a visual sensor does not need any other extra equipment for its operation. The sensor is not sensitive to moisture with RH upto 90% and does not also respond to gases like Methane (CH4), Nitrous Oxide (N2O), Carbon dioxide (CO2) etc in the test chamber each up to a concentration of 500 ppm. Conversion/decomposition of MAPI to PbI2 on exposure to NH3 has been proposed as the mechanism of color change and the mechanism has been established using a collection of techniques like XRD, EDX, UV-Visible absorption and Photo Luminescence.

A high-sensitive room temperature gas sensor based on cobalt phthalocyanines and reduced graphene oxide nanohybrids for the ppb-levels of ammonia detection.

Project description:Highly sensitive gas sensing materials are of great importance for environmental pollution monitoring. In this study, four nanohybrid materials containing different phenoxyl substituents of cobalt phthalocyanines (tetra-β-carboxylphenoxylphthalocyanine cobalt (cpoPcCo), tetra-β-(4-carboxy-3-methoxyphenoxy)phthalocyanine cobalt (cmpoPcCo), tetra-β-phenoxylphthalocyanine cobalt (poPcCo), and tetra-β-(3-methoxyphenoxy)phthalocyanine cobalt (mpoPcCo)) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) (RPcCo/rGO) were synthesized via non-covalent interactions as a high performance gas sensing materials for the ppb-level detection of ammonia (NH3). Various characterization techniques, including FT-IR, Raman, UV-vis, TGA, XPS and SEM, were used to confirm the structure, element information and morphology of the as-synthesized materials. The obtained materials were used in interdigital electrodes to fabricate the sensing device, and the gas sensing performance was investigated at room temperature. The obtained sensors exhibited excellent sensitivity, selectivity, good reproducibility and perfect response-concentration linearity towards NH3, which are mainly ascribed to the synergetic effects of RPcCo and rGO due to the specific surface area structure for NH3 diffusion, the abundant active sites to adsorb NH3, and excellent conductivity for efficient electron transport, particularly the effect of RPcCo. For example, the cpoPcCo/rGO-based sensor showed a higher and faster response for low concentration of NH3 (∼2.5 and 45 s for 100 ppb of NH3), a ppb level detection and superior stability over 60 days. Besides, the effect of different phenoxyl substituents of cobalt phthalocyanines on the sensing performance and the sensing mechanism for the sensitivity enhancement were discussed and confirmed by the first-principles density functional theory calculations and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

A Wearable Electrochemical Gas Sensor for Ammonia Detection.

Project description:The next future strategies for improved occupational safety and health management could largely benefit from wearable and Internet of Things technologies, enabling the real-time monitoring of health-related and environmental information to the wearer, to emergency responders, and to inspectors. The aim of this study is the development of a wearable gas sensor for the detection of NH3 at room temperature based on the organic semiconductor poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), electrochemically deposited iridium oxide particles, and a hydrogel film. The hydrogel composition was finely optimised to obtain self-healing properties, as well as the desired porosity, adhesion to the substrate, and stability in humidity variations. Its chemical structure and morphology were characterised by infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, respectively, and were found to play a key role in the transduction process and in the achievement of a reversible and selective response. The sensing properties rely on a potentiometric-like mechanism that significantly differs from most of the state-of-the-art NH3 gas sensors and provides superior robustness to the final device. Thanks to the reliability of the analytical response, the simple two-terminal configuration and the low power consumption, the PEDOT:PSS/IrOx Ps/hydrogel sensor was realised on a flexible plastic foil and successfully tested in a wearable configuration with wireless connectivity to a smartphone. The wearable sensor showed stability to mechanical deformations and good analytical performances, with a sensitivity of 60 ± 8 μA decade-1 in a wide concentration range (17-7899 ppm), which includes the safety limits set by law for NH3 exposure.

Room-temperature ammonia gas sensing via Au nanoparticle-decorated TiO2 nanosheets

Project description:A high-performance gas sensor operating at room temperature is always favourable since it simplifies the device fabrication and lowers the operating power by eliminating a heater. Herein, we fabricated the ammonia (NH3) gas sensor by using Au nanoparticle-decorated TiO2 nanosheets, which were synthesized via two distinct processes: (1) preparation of monolayer TiO2 nanosheets through flux growth and a subsequent chemical exfoliation and (2) decoration of Au nanoparticles on the TiO2 nanosheets via hydrothermal method. Based on the morphological, compositional, crystallographic, and surface characteristics of this low-dimensional nano-heterostructured material, its temperature- and concentration-dependent NH3 gas-sensing properties were investigated. A high response of ~ 2.8 was obtained at room temperature under 20 ppm NH3 gas concentration by decorating Au nanoparticles onto the surface of TiO2 nanosheets, which generated oxygen defects and induced spillover effect as well.

Nitrogen-doped carbon nano-onions/polypyrrole nanocomposite based low-cost flexible sensor for room temperature ammonia detection.

Project description:One of the frontier research areas in the field of gas sensing is high-performance room temperature-based novel sensing materials, and new family of low-cost and eco-friendly carbon nanomaterials with a unique structure has attracted significant attention. In this work, we propose a novel low-cost flexible room temperature ammonia gas sensor based on nitrogen-doped carbon nano-onions/polypyrrole (NCNO-PPy) composite material mounted low-cost membrane substrate was synthesized by combining hydrothermal and in-situ chemical polymerization methods. The proposed flexible sensor revealed high sensing performance when employed as the sensing material for ammonia detection at room temperature. The NCNO-PPy ammonia sensor exhibited 17.32% response for 100 ppm ammonia concentration with a low response time of 26 s. The NCNO-PPy based flexible sensor displays high selectivity, good repeatability, and long-term durability with 1 ppm as the lower detection limit. The proposed flexible sensor also demonstrated remarkable mechanical robustness under extreme bending conditions, i.e., up to 90° bending angle and 500 bending cycles. This enhanced sensing performance can be related to the potential bonding and synergistic interaction between nitrogen-doped CNOs and PPy, the formation of defects from nitrogen doping, and the presence of high reactive sites on the surface of NCNO-PPy composites. Additionally, the computational study was performed on optimized NCNO-PPy nanocomposite for both with and without NH3 interaction. A deeper understanding of the sensing phenomena was proposed by the computation of several electronic characteristics, such as band gap, electron affinity, and ionization potential, for the optimized composite.

Ultrahigh Selective Room-Temperature Ammonia Gas Sensor Based on Tin-Titanium Dioxide/reduced Graphene/Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites by the Solvothermal Method.

Project description:Resistive-based gas sensors have been considered as the most favorable gas sensors for detection of toxic gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) because of their simple structure, low cost, high sensitivity, ease of use, and high stability. Unfortunately, wide application of resistive-based gas sensors is limited by their low selectivity. In this article, we present the fabrication of ultrahigh selective NH3 gas sensor based on tin-titanium dioxide/reduced graphene/carbon nanotube (Sn-TiO2@rGO/CNT) nanocomposites. The Sn-TiO2@rGO/CNT nanocomposites with different molar ratios of Sn/Ti (1:10, 3:10, and 5:10) were synthesized via the solvothermal method. Characterizations by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the decoration of Sn-TiO2 nanoparticles on rGO/CNT nanocomposite surfaces. The Sn-TiO2@rGO/CNT nanocomposite gas sensor exhibited high response and ultrahigh selectivity to NH3 against toluene, dimethylformamide, acetone, ethanol, methanol, isopropanol, formaldehyde, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, acetylene, and VOCs in paint thinners at room temperature. The Sn-TiO2@rGO/CNT nanocomposite gas sensor with molar ratio of Sn/Ti = 1:10 showed the highest response to NH3 over other molar ratios of Sn/Ti as well as pure rGO/CNT and Sn-TiO2 gas sensors. The ammonia-sensing mechanisms of the Sn-TiO2@rGO/CNT gas sensor were proposed based on the formation of p-n heterojunctions of p-type rGO/CNT and n-type Sn-TiO2 nanoparticles via a low-temperature oxidizing reaction process.

Near Room Temperature Light-Activated WS2-Decorated rGO as NO2 Gas Sensor.

Project description:The NO2 response in the range of 200 ppb to 1 ppm of a chemoresistive WS2-decorated rGO sensor has been investigated at operating temperatures of 25 °C and 50 °C in dry and humid air (40% RH) under dark and Purple Blue (PB) light conditions (λ = 430 nm). Few-layers WS2, exfoliated by ball milling and sonication technique, with average dimensions of 200 nm, have been mixed with rGO flakes (average dimension 700 nm) to yield WS2-decorated rGO, deposited on Si3N4 substrates, provided with platinum (30 μm gap distance) finger-type electrodes. TEM analysis showed the formation of homogeneous and well-dispersed WS2 flakes distributed over a thin, continuous and uniform underlying layer of interconnected rGO flakes. XPS and STEM revealed a partial oxidation of WS2 flakes leading to the formation of 18% amorphous WO3 over the WS2 flakes. PB-light irradiation and mild heating of the sensor at 50 °C substantially enhanced the baseline recovery yielding improved adsorption/desorption rates, with detection limit of 400 ppb NO2 and reproducible gas responses. Cross sensitivity tests with humid air interfering vapor highlighted a negligible influence of water vapor on the NO2 response. A charge carrier mechanism between WS2 and rGO is proposed and discussed to explain the overall NO2 and H2O response of the WS2-rGO hybrids.

Silver Enhances Hematite Nanoparticles Based Ethanol Sensor Response and Selectivity at Room Temperature.

Project description:Gas sensors are fundamental for continuous online monitoring of volatile organic compounds. Gas sensors based on semiconductor materials have demonstrated to be highly competitive, but are generally made of expensive materials and operate at high temperatures, which are drawbacks of these technologies. Herein is described a novel ethanol sensor for room temperature (25 °C) measurements based on hematite (α‑Fe2O3)/silver nanoparticles. The AgNPs were shown to increase the oxide semiconductor charge carrier density, but especially to enhance the ethanol adsorption rate boosting the selectivity and sensitivity, thus allowing quantification of ethanol vapor in 2-35 mg L-1 range with an excellent linear relationship. In addition, the α-Fe2O3/Ag 3.0 wt% nanocomposite is cheap, and easy to make and process, imparting high perspectives for real applications in breath analyzers and/or sensors in food and beverage industries. This work contributes to the advance of gas sensing at ambient temperature as a competitive alternative for quantification of conventional volatile organic compounds.

Reversible ammonia uptake at room temperature in a robust and tunable metal-organic framework.

Project description:Ammonia is useful for the production of fertilizers and chemicals for modern technology, but its high toxicity and corrosiveness are harmful to the environment and human health. Here, we report the recyclable and tunable ammonia adsorption using a robust imidazolium-based MOF (JCM-1) that uptakes 5.7 mmol g-1 of NH3 at 298 K reversibly without structural deformation. Furthermore, a simple substitution of NO3 - with Cl- in a post-synthetic manner leads to an increase in the NH3 uptake capacity of JCM-1(Cl-) up to 7.2 mmol g-1.

Air Stable Nickel-Decorated Black Phosphorus and Its Room-Temperature Chemiresistive Gas Sensor Capabilities.

Project description:In the rapidly emerging field of layered two-dimensional functional materials, black phosphorus, the P-counterpart of graphene, is a potential candidate for various applications, e.g., nanoscale optoelectronics, rechargeable ion batteries, electrocatalysts, thermoelectrics, solar cells, and sensors. Black phosphorus has shown superior chemical sensing performance; in particular, it is selective for the detection of NO2, an environmental toxic gas, for which black phosphorus has highlighted high sensitivity at a ppb level. In this work, by applying a multiscale characterization approach, we demonstrated a stability and functionality improvement of nickel-decorated black phosphorus films for gas sensing prepared by a simple, reproducible, and affordable deposition technique. Furthermore, we studied the electrical behavior of these films once implemented as functional layers in gas sensors by exposing them to different gaseous compounds and under different relative humidity conditions. Finally, the influence on sensing performance of nickel nanoparticle dimensions and concentration correlated to the decoration technique and film thickness was investigated.
