A facile method for enhancing the sensing performance of zinc oxide nanofibers gas sensors

Abstract

ZnO nanoparticles and nanofibers are prepared using radio-frequency (RF) sputtering and electrospinning, respectively. The performances of ZnO nanoparticles–nanofibers sensors are superior to those of ZnO nanofibers and ZnO nanoparticles sensors for ethanol. It is due to the increase of effective contact area and porosity of ZnO nanofibers.
