Abstract
Tungsten oxide is an intensively studied semiconductor with the relevant application as H2S gas sensor. In this work we report on H2S gas sensor devices based on tungsten oxide nanowire networks, which are integrated on a CMOS fabricated microhotplate chip. Tungsten oxide gas sensors were prepared by the deposition of nanowire networks onto interdigitated electrodes on CMOS. The material properties of the tungsten oxide nanowires were investigated by TEM and Raman spectroscopy, confirming their non-stoichiometric state. Utilising WO3-x nanowire networks as gas sensing material we obtained extraordinary sensitivity to H2S: concentrations down to 10 ppb have been detected, even in the presence of 50% relative humidity.
