Abstract:
The paper deals with a gas sensing device based on Vanadium oxide (V2O5)/ Porous Si (PS) /Si structure used to detect Ethanol gas at different concentration. The V2O5 thin films were deposited on porous silicon by the sol-gel (Dip-coating) technique. The Vanadium oxide has been produced from vanadium alcoxide precursor. Current-voltage and admittance characterizations show that the sensor characteristics are modified in the presence of gases. Conductance measurements at low frequencies indicate the presence of interface states.
