High sensitive NH3 sensor based on electrochemically etched porous silicon
In the current study, porous silicon (por-Si) samples were fabricated by electrochemical etching at different times (20 min, 40 min, 60 min). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of horizontal cross-sections of the samples showed the formation of pores. The etched samples’ porosity was determin...

description | In the current study, porous silicon (por-Si) samples were fabricated by electrochemical etching at different times (20 min, 40 min, 60 min). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of horizontal cross-sections of the samples showed the formation of pores. The etched samples’ porosity was determined by the gravimetric method and amounted to 59.5%, 72.7%, 83.3%, respectively. Optical characteristics such as Raman spectra and photoluminescence (PL) spectra were obtained. The current-voltage and capacitance-voltage characteristics were also measured to calculate the sensitivity of the samples. The study results show that sample, which is etched for 40 minutes has a maximum response value to ammonia (NH3) gas than others, and the sensitivity is 33.25. The results demonstrated that it is possible to develop a high sensitive sensor device based on por-Si for determining NH3 gas in concentrations below 0.1 ppm at room temperature. |
