Multicomponent SF₆ decomposition product sensing with a gas-sensing microchip.

ABSTRACT: A difficult issue restricting the development of gas sensors is multicomponent recognition. Herein, a gas-sensing (GS) microchip loaded with three gas-sensitive materials was fabricated via a micromachining technique. Then, a portable gas detection system was built to collect the signals of the chip under various decomposition products of sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆). Through a stacked denoising autoencoder (SDAE), a total of five high-level features could be extracted from the original signals. Combined with machine learning algorithms, the accurate classification of 47 simulants was realized, and 5-fold cross-validation proved the reliability. To investigate the generalization ability, 30 sets of examinations for testing unknown gases were performed. The results indicated that SDAE-based models exhibit better generalization performance than PCA-based models, regardless of the magnitude of noise. In addition, hypothesis testing was introduced to check the significant differences of various models, and the bagging-based back propagation neural network with SDAE exhibits superior performance at 95% confidence.

Facile Fabrication of Au Nanoparticles/Tin Oxide/Reduced Graphene Oxide Ternary Nanocomposite and Its High-Performance SF6 Decomposition Components Sensing.

Project description:A high-performance sensor for detecting SF6 decomposition components (H2S and SOF2) was fabricated via hydrothermal method using Au nanoparticles/tin oxide/reduced graphene oxide (AuNPs-SnO2-reduced graphene oxide [rGO]) hybrid nanomaterials. The sensor has gas-sensing properties that responded and recovered rapidly at a relatively low operating temperature. The structure and micromorphology of the prepared materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). The gas-sensing properties of AuNPs-SnO2-rGO hybrid materials were studied by exposure to target gases. Results showed that AuNPs-SnO2-rGO sensors had desirable response/recovery time. Compared with pure rGO (210/452 s, 396/748 s) and SnO2/rGO (308/448 s, 302/467 s), the response/recovery time ratios of AuNPs-SnO2-rGO sensors for 50 ppm H2S and 50 ppm SOF2 at 110°C were 26/35 s and 41/68 s, respectively. Furthermore, the two direction-resistance changes of the AuNPs-SnO2-rGO sensor when exposed to H2S and SOF2 gas made this sensor a suitable candidate for selective detection of SF6 decomposition components. The enhanced sensing performance can be attributed to the heterojunctions with the highly conductive graphene, SnO2 films and Au nanoparticles.

Dysprosium Doped Zinc Oxide for NO2 Gas Sensing.

Project description:Pure and dysprosium-loaded ZnO films were grown by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. The films were characterized using a wide variety of morphological, compositional, optical, and electrical techniques. The crystalline structure, surface homogeneity, and bandgap energies were studied in detail for the developed nanocomposites. The properties of pure and dysprosium-doped ZnO thin films were investigated to detect nitrogen dioxide (NO2) at the ppb range. In particular, ZnO sensors doped with rare-earth materials have been demonstrated as a feasible strategy to improve the sensitivity in comparison to their pure ZnO counterparts. In addition, the sensing performance was studied and discussed under dry and humid environments, revealing noteworthy stability and reliability under different experimental conditions. In this perspective, additional gaseous compounds such as ammonia and ethanol were measured, resulting in extremely low sensing responses. Therefore, the gas-sensing mechanisms were discussed in detail to better understand the NO2 selectivity given by the Dy-doped ZnO layer.

Ti3C2Tx as a Sensor for SF6/N2 Nitrogen-Containing Fault Decomposition Characteristic Products: A Theoretical Study.

Project description:The SF6/N2 gas mixture is an alternative gas to SF6. SF6/N2 will decompose and generate nitrogenous characteristic gases, such as NO, NO2, N2O, and NF3, when exposed to long-term partial discharge. The adsorption models of Ti3C2Tx (T=O, F, OH) and NO, NO2, N2O, NF3 were constructed, and the most stable adsorption structure was selected in this paper. The electron density and density of states of the adsorption system were further analyzed to study the adsorption behavior, and the sensing performance was evaluated in the end. The results are as follows: four gases could be spontaneously adsorbed on Ti3C2Tx, and strong adsorption occurred when surface terminal groups were OH, forming hydrogen or chemical bonds with significant charge transfer. Results show that Ti3C2(OH)2 had a stronger sensing ability than Ti3C2F2 and Ti3C2O2. The conductivity of the Ti3C2Tx with different terminal groups was improved after the adsorption of NO and NO2, showing Ti3C2Tx had a good sensing ability for NO and NO2. It was difficult for the four gases to desorb from the Ti3C2(OH)2 surface, but the adsorption on the Ti3C2F2, Ti3C2O2 surface had a short recovery time at room temperature.

Effect of Unsaturated Sn Atoms on Gas-Sensing Property in Hydrogenated SnO2 Nanocrystals and Sensing Mechanism.

Project description:Sensing reaction mechanism is crucial for enhancing the sensing performance of semiconductor-based sensing materials. Here we show a new strategy to enhancing sensing performance of SnO2 nanocrystals by increasing the density of unsaturated Sn atoms with dangling bonds at the SnO2 surface through hydrogenation. A concept of the surface unsaturated Sn atoms serving as active sites for the sensing reaction is proposed, and the sensing mechanism is described in detail at atomic and molecule level for the first time. Sensing properties of other metal oxide sensors and catalytic activity of other catalysts may be improved by using the hydrogenation strategy. The concept of the surface unsaturated metal atoms serving as active sites may be very useful for understanding the sensing and catalytic reaction mechanisms and designing advanced sensing sensors, catalysts and photoelectronic devices.

Rh-doped MoTe2 Monolayer as a Promising Candidate for Sensing and Scavenging SF6 Decomposed Species: a DFT Study.

Project description:In this work, the adsorption and sensing behaviors of Rh-doped MoTe2 (Rh-MoTe2) monolayer upon SO2, SOF2, and SO2F2 are investigated using first-principles theory, wherein the Rh doping behavior on the pure MoTe2 surface is included as well. Results indicate that TMo is the preferred Rh doping site with Eb of - 2.69 eV, and on the Rh-MoTe2 surface, SO2 and SO2F2 are identified as chemisorption with Ead of - 2.12 and - 1.65 eV, respectively, while SOF2 is physically adsorbed with Ead of - 0.46 eV. The DOS analysis verifies the adsorption performance and illustrates the electronic behavior of Rh doping on gas adsorption. Band structure and frontier molecular orbital analysis provide the basic sensing mechanism of Rh-MoTe2 monolayer as a resistance-type sensor. The recovery behavior supports the potential of Rh-doped surface as a reusable SO2 sensor and suggests its exploration as a gas scavenger for removal of SO2F2 in SF6 insulation devices. The dielectric function manifests that Rh-MoTe2 monolayer is a promising optical sensor for selective detection of three gases. This work is beneficial to explore Rh-MoTe2 monolayer as a sensing material or a gas adsorbent to guarantee the safe operation of SF6 insulation devices in an easy and high-efficiency manner.

Insights on decomposition process of c-C4F8 and c-C4F8/N2 mixture as substitutes for SF6.

Project description:In recent years, many scholars have carried out studies on c-C4F8 and its gas mixture and found it has potential to be used as an environment-friendly insulating medium to replace SF6 in medium-voltage equipment. In this paper, the c-C4F8 and c-C4F8/N2 gas mixture models were built to study its decomposition process by the combination of reactive molecular dynamics method and density functional theory. The yield of the main decomposition products, the reaction pathways and enthalpy under different temperatures were explored. It was found that the decomposition of c-C4F8/N2 mainly produces CF2, F, CF3, CF, C, CF4 and C2F4. c-C4F8 can decompose to C2F4 by absorbing 43.28 kcal/mol, which is the main decomposition path and this process easily occurs under high temperature. There is a dynamic equilibrium process among the various produced radicals, which ensures the insulation performance of system to a certain extent. The decomposition performance of c-C4F8/N2 mixture is better than that of pure c-C4F8 at the same temperature. Relevant results provide guidance for engineering application of the c-C4F8/N2 gas mixture.

NO2 Suppression of Autoxidation-Inhibition of Gas-Phase Highly Oxidized Dimer Product Formation.

Project description:Atmospheric autoxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) leads to prompt formation of highly oxidized multifunctional compounds (HOM) that have been found crucial in forming ambient secondary organic aerosol (SOA). As a radical chain reaction mediated by oxidized peroxy (RO2) and alkoxy (RO) radical intermediates, the formation pathways can be intercepted by suitable reaction partners, preventing the production of the highest oxidized reaction products, and thus the formation of the most condensable material. Commonly, NO is expected to have a detrimental effect on RO2 chemistry, and thus on autoxidation, whereas the influence of NO2 is mostly neglected. Here it is shown by dedicated flow tube experiments, how high concentration of NO2 suppresses cyclohexene ozonolysis initiated autoxidation chain reaction. Importantly, the addition of NO2 ceases covalently bound dimer production, indicating their production involving acylperoxy radical (RC(O)OO•) intermediates. In related experiments NO was also shown to strongly suppress the highly oxidized product formation, but due to possibility for chain propagating reactions (as with RO2 and HO2 too), the suppression is not as absolute as with NO2. Furthermore, it is shown how NO x reactions with oxidized peroxy radicals lead into indistinguishable product compositions, complicating mass spectral assignments in any RO2 + NO x system. The present work was conducted with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS) as the detection method for the highly oxidized end-products and peroxy radical intermediates, under ambient conditions and at short few second reaction times. Specifically, the insight was gained by addition of a large amount of NO2 (and NO) to the oxidation system, upon which acylperoxy radicals reacted in RC(O)O2 + NO2 ? RC(O)O2NO2 reaction to form peroxyacylnitrates, consequently shutting down the oxidation sequence.

Selective gas detection using Mn3O4/WO3 composites as a sensing layer.

Project description:Pure WO3 sensors and Mn3O4/WO3 composite sensors with different Mn concentrations (1 atom %, 3 atom % and 5 atom %) were successfully prepared through a facile hydrothermal method. As gas sensing materials, their sensing performance at different temperatures was systematically investigated for gas detection. The devices displayed different sensing responses toward different gases at specific temperatures. The gas sensing performance of Mn3O4/WO3 composites (especially at 3 atom % Mn) were far improved compared to sensors based on pure WO3, where the improvement is related to the heterojunction formed between the two metal oxides. The sensor based on the Mn3O4/WO3 composite with 3 atom % Mn showed a high selective response to hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3) and carbon monoxide (CO) at working temperatures of 90 °C, 150 °C and 210 °C, respectively. The demonstrated superior selectivity opens the door for potential applications in gas recognition and detection.

Effects of Phase Selection on Gas-Sensing Performance of MoS2 and WS2 Substrates.

Project description:Two-dimensional transition metal disulfides such as MoS2 and WS2 exhibit multiple phases. Altering their phase makes it possible to change their chemical and physical properties significantly. Although several phase-induced modification mechanisms have been reported, their effects on the gas-sensing performance of these substrates remain unknown. Here, the effects of phase selection on the gas-sensing characteristics of 1T' and 2H monolayer MoS2 and WS2 were explored using a density functional theory-based first-principles approach. The theoretical computations took into account the binding energy, band structure, theoretical recovery time, density of states, electron difference density, and total electron density. The results showed that there is a significant change in the density of states near the Fermi level as well as greater charge transfer between the gas in question and the substrate when the gas is adsorbed onto 1T' MoS2 and WS2. Thus, phase selection is important for improving the gas-sensing performance of monolayer MoS2 and WS2. This study provides theoretical evidence for increasing the sensing performance of polymorph films of these materials.

Nickel nanoparticle-decorated reduced graphene oxide/WO3 nanocomposite - a promising candidate for gas sensing.

Project description:We report for the first time the combination of WO3 sensing elements with a non-noble metal-carbon composite, namely a nickel metal nanoparticle-carbon composite (Ni@rGO). Previous work with WO3 had used either NiO (as part of the WO3 lattice), solely carbon, Pd-surface decorated WO3 (Pd@WO3), or Pd or Pt@carbon@WO3. We demonstrate the gas response for pure WO3, rGO/WO3 and Ni@rGO/WO3 sensing elements towards NO2 and acetone in air as well as towards CO in N2. The addition of 0.35 wt % Ni@rGO composite to WO3 enables the increase of the sensory response by more than 1.6 times for NO2 vapors. The gas response towards acetone using 0.35 wt % Ni@rGO/WO3 composite was 1.5 times greater for 3500 ppm than for 35,000 ppm acetone. For 0.35 wt % Ni@rGO/WO3 composite and CO gas, a response time (T res) of 7 min and a recovery time (T rec) of 2 min was determined.
