Titanium (Ti)-coated multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) emitters based on the magnetron sputtering process are demonstrated, and the influences of modification to CNTs on the residual gas adsorption, gas desorption, and their field emission characteristic are discussed. Experimental results show that Ti nanoparticles are easily adsorbed on the surface of CNTs due to the “defects” produced by Ar+ irradiation pretreatment. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterization showed that Ti nanoparticles contribute to the adsorption of ambient molecules by changing the chemical bonding between C, Ti, and O. Field emission of CNTs coated with Ti nanoparticles agree well with the Fowler–Nordheim theory. The deviation of emission current under constant voltage is 6.3% and 8.6% for Ti-CNTs and pristine CNTs, respectively. The mass spectrometry analysis illustrated that Ti-coated CNTs have a better adsorption capacity at room temperature, as well as a lower outgassing effect than pristine CNTs after degassing in the process of field emission.

The effect of operating temperature on characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) based gas sensor was investigated. SWNT-based sensor was fabricated from SWNT powder (Iljin Nanotech, Korea) by screen-printing method. SWNT powder (30 mg, AP grade) was dispersed into 0.78 gram a-terpineol (Aldrich) by ultrasonic vibration for 1 hour then stirred manually for 1 hour to increase adhesion. From this condensed solution, a thick film of SWNT was printed onto alumina substrates. The film then was sintered at 300oC for 2 hours to remove residual impurities. Upon exposure to some gases such as nitrogen, ammonia or nitric oxide, resistance of the sensor dramatically changes due to gas adsorption. In our experiments, SWNT-based sensor was employed to detect NH3 gas in N2 ambience. After saturated of N2, the sensor exposes to NH3 with various concentrations (from 5 ppm to 100 ppm, diluted by N2 as carrier gas). This sensor exhibits a fast response, high sensitivity but slow recovery at room temperature. By heating at high temperature and increasing the flow-rate of carrier gas, NH3 gas desorbs easily and recovery of the sensor improved. The heating also influenced the characteristics of sensors such as response and reproducibility. Other special changes in electric property of SWNT-based sensor caused by heating are also discussed.

An expression for the isosteric heat of the partially mobile monolayer adsorption of a single gas on a homogeneous adsorbent surface has been derived. Optimization of the model parameters has been performed for selected experimental systems.

AbstractWe report (6 wt %) storage of H2 at T=77 K in processed bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes at P=2 atmospheres. The hydrogen storage isotherms are completely reversible. D2 isotherms confirm this anomalous low-pressure adsorption and further reveal the effects of quantum mechanical zero point motion. We propose that our post-synthesis treatment of the sample not only improves access for hydrogen to the central pores within individual nanotubes, but also may create a roughened tube surface with an enhanced binding energy for hydrogen. Such an enhancement is needed to understand the strong adsorption at low pressure. We obtain an experimental isosteric heat qst=125 ± 5 meV for processed SWNT materials.

We present a comparative study of hydrogen gas adsorption experiments on CPO-27–Cu and –Mn. The initial isosteric heat of adsorption in CPO-27–Cu is low for a material containing open metal sites and in contrast to the other members of the CPO-27 series, including the Mn compound.
