A high-sensitivity hydrogen gas sensor based on carbon nanotubes fabricated on SiO2 substrate

In this study, an inexpensive simple method for the fabrication of efficient hydrogen (H2) gas sensor based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was presented. The CNTs were synthesized using microwave oven and deposited onto SiO2 substrate by a dielectrophoretic method. The as-grown CNTs showed an n-type beh...
