Lightweight, Room-Temperature CO2 Gas Sensor Based on Rare-Earth Metal-Free Composites—An Impedance Study

Abstract: We report a light, flexible, and low-power poly(ionic liquid)/alumina composite CO2 sensor. We monitor the direct-current resistance changes as a function of CO2 concentration and relative humidity and demonstrate fast and reversible sensing kinetics. Moreover, on the basis of the alternating-current impedance measurements we propose a sensing mechanism related to proton conduction and gas diffusion. The findings presented herein will promote the development of organic/inorganic composite CO2 gas sensors. In t… Show more

“…Especially in nanostructure based gas sensors, environmental humidity is a crucial factor for accurate and reliable gas sensing. Water molecules in humid environments easily attach to the sensor surface and hinder the reaction between the target gas and reaction sites on SnO 2 , thereby inducing a false signal and reducing the sensitivity and long-term stability [ 1 , 2 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Furthermore, when the nanostructured SnO 2 layer is formed on the sensor surface, the water molecules in humid air condense into water droplets on the surface and thereafter infiltrate the nanostructures, causing the collapse of the morphology.…”

“…3 Furthermore, the presence of carbon dioxide in the environment is steadily increasing as it is generated from motor vehicles, industries and other resources, which are logically responsible for increased global warming. [4][5][6] The industrial revolution is one of the major factors responsible for increasing the carbon dioxide levels. Thus, the tracking and control of carbon dioxide is essentially important in food packaging and breath analysis technologies.…”
