Gas sensors based on multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) for detecting gaseous molecules of ammoniac (NH3) were developed and investigated. MWCNT film was grown directly by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method on Pt electrodes to fabricate sensor device. The CNT based – gas sensor is shown sensitively and selectively to NH3 gas at room temperature.

Graphene has attracted considerable interest due its exceptional physical properties. This article describes the thermoelectric and magnetic properties such as the Seebeck coefficient and the magnetoresistance, at room temperature, of multilayers of graphene fabricated through the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method and coated with Ag nanoparticles (NPs). According to the results, the Seebeck coefficient increased from -30 to -5 μV/K as a function of deposition time of Ag NPsand magnetoresistance increase their initial value as a function of sheet resistance up to 16.6%.

Palladium-coated multi-walled carbon nanotube (Pd-MWCNT) nanocomposites have been experimentally proven to show highly improved hydrogen (H2) gas detection characteristics at room temperature when compared with single MWCNTs. In this context, we develop an efficient and convenient method for forming nanocomposites by coating Pd nanoparticles on an MWCNT film. Furthermore, we test the applicability of the nanocomposites as sensing materials in detecting H2 gas at room temperature in a reliable and sensitive manner in contrast with ordinary metal-oxidebased gas sensors that operate at high temperatures. We first study the detection efficacy of the Pd-MWCNT film relative to pure MWCNT film. Subsequently, we investigate the Pd-MWCNT sensor’s sensitivity over time for different gas concentrations, the sensor response time, and sensor reproducibility and reliability under various conditions including bending tests. Our sensor exhibits stable reliable detection characteristics and excellent structural flexibility.

We report the synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) from ethanol by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Ethanol used as carbon source is atomized by an ultrasonic evaporator at room temperature, and is injected into a CVD furnace through a nozzle installed inside the furnace. The SEM and TEM analysis shows that the product contained CNTs as major constituents with some impurities. The radial breathing mode (RBM) of Raman spectrum reveals that the SWNTs are included in the product. The average diameter of the MWNTs is about 30nm and that of the SWNTs is less than 2nm.

Blackbody-sensitive room-temperature infrared detection is a notable development direction for future low-dimensional infrared photodetectors. However, because of the limitations of responsivity and spectral response range for low-dimensional narrow bandgap semiconductors, few low-dimensional infrared photodetectors exhibit blackbody sensitivity. Here, highly crystalline tellurium (Te) nanowires and two-dimensional nanosheets were synthesized by using chemical vapor deposition. The low-dimensional Te shows high hole mobility and broadband detection. The blackbody-sensitive infrared detection of Te devices was demonstrated. A high responsivity of 6650 A W−1 (at 1550-nm laser) and the blackbody responsivity of 5.19 A W−1 were achieved. High-resolution imaging based on Te photodetectors was successfully obtained. All the results suggest that the chemical vapor deposition–grown low-dimensional Te is one of the competitive candidates for sensitive focal-plane-array infrared photodetectors at room temperature.

Molecule-based magnets are a broad, emerging class of magnetic materials that expand the materials properties typically associated with magnets to include low density, transparency, electrical insulation, and low-temperature fabrication, as well as combine magnetic ordering with other properties such as photoresponsiveness. Essentially all of the common magnetic phenomena associated with conventional transition-metal and rare-earth-based magnets can be found in molecule-based magnets. Although discovered less than two decades ago, magnets with ordering temperatures exceeding room temperature, very high (∼27.0 kOe or 2.16 MA/m) and very low (several Oe or less) coercivities, and substantial remanent and saturation magnetizations have been achieved. In addition, exotic phenomena including photoresponsiveness have been reported. The advent of molecule-based magnets offers new processing opportunities. For example, thin-film magnets can be prepared by means of low-temperature chemical vapor deposition and electrodeposition methods.

ABSTRACTPoly-silicon films are obtained at temperatures as low as 400 °C by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (cat-CVD) method, in which deposition gases are decomposed by the catalytic or pyrolytic reactions with a heated catalyzer near substrates. It is found that there are roughly two modes of deposition conditions such as low gas pressure mode and high gas pressure mode for obtaining poly-silicon films, and also that the Hall mobility of the cat-CVD poly-silicon films of low gas pressure mode sometimes exceeds over 100 cm2/Vs.
