Resumo

In this paper, a comparative study of Pt/nanostructured MoO3/SiC Schottky diode based hydrogen gas sensors is presented. MoO3 nanostructured films with three different morphologies (nanoplatelets, nanoplateletsnanowires and nano-flowers) were deposited on SiC by thermal evaporation. We compare the current-voltage characteristics and the dynamic response of these sensors as they are exposed to hydrogen gas at temperatures up to 250°C. Results indicate that the sensor based on MoO3 nanoflowers exhibited the highest sensitivity (in terms of a 5.79V voltage shift) towards 1% hydrogen; while the sensor based on MoO3 nanoplatelets showed the quickest response (t90%- 40s).
