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.

ABSTRACTSSingle-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have attracted much attention due to their unique structural, mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties. Catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) through decomposition of hydrocarbons is one of the most challenging synthesis methods to produce SWNTs in large scale. In this paper, high quality SWNTs prepared in a nano-agglomerated fluidized bed reactor (NAFBR) was reported. The reactor is a vertical quartz tube with the inner diameter of about 50 mm. Catalysts nanoparticles used for the production of SWNTs were prepared with Fe metal nanoparticles carried on the surface of MgO. About 150g catalysts powders were loaded on the gas distribution grid. The reaction temperature was controlled at not less than 1123 K. The carrier gas of argon was used to maintain turbulent fluidization of the catalysts powders in FBR. The hydrogen gas was used to reduce the catalysts and to synergize the growth of SWNTs with methane. The powder products were spherical agglomerates of SWNTs bundles tangling with the catalysts particles. By optimizing the process parameters of CCVD, the products of SWNTs with the diameter about 0.9 ∼ 1.8 nm were prepared, without any multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) or amorphous carbon. The microstructure of SWNTs products were characterized by the methods of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectra, etc. The NAFBR is a commercially viable (effective and continuous production at a low cost) process for the production of SWNTs.
