Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sensor based on the wide bandgap semiconductor, silicon carbide (SiC), has been developed for the detection of combustion products in power plant environments. The sensor is a catalytic gate field effect device, Pt/SiO2/SiC that can detect hydrogen-containing species in chemically reactive, high temperature (600 C) environments. We demonstrate that the device can be used as a hydrogen monitor in syngas applications of common interferants as well as sulfur and water vapor. These measurements were made in the Catalyst Screening Unit at NETL, Morgantown under atmospheric conditions. The sensor response to hydrogen gas at 350 C is 240 mV/decade, this is significantly higher than the device response to room temperature gas or that predicted from vacuum chamber studies. The enhanced catalytic activity of the platinum sensing film under energy plant operating conditions was investigated via AFM, x-ray diffraction, TEM and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Our characterization indicated that exposure to high temperature gases significantly modifies the morphology of the Pt catalytic film and the Pt/SiO2 interfacial region, which we tentatively attribute to the enhanced hydrogen sensitivity of the sensing film. A model for the hydrogen/oxygen response of the SiC device under atmospheric conditions was developed. It is based on two independent phenomena: a chemically induced shift in the metal-semiconductor work function difference and the passivation/creation of charged states at the SiO2-SiC interface. The optimum operating set point for the SiC sensor with respect to response time and long term reliability was determined to be close to mid-gap. Ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) techniques were used to investigate the effects of sulfur contamination on the Pt gate. Exposure to hydrogen sulfide, even in the presence of hydrogen or oxygen at partial pressures of 20-600 times greater than the H2S level, rapidly coated the gate with a monolayer of sulfur. Although hydrogen exposure could not remove the adsorbed sulfur, oxygen was effective at removing sulfur with no evidence of irreversible changes in device behavior. The role of oxygen in the functioning of the SiC sensors was also investigated. All of the results are consistent with oxygen acting through its surface reactions with hydrogen, including the need for oxygen to reset the device to a fully hydrogen-depleted state and competition between hydrogen oxidation and hydrogen diffusion to metal/oxide interface sites. A strong sensor response to the unsaturated linear hydrocarbon propene (C3H6) was observed.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Single crystalline cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) is one of the promising materials that can be used for high-power, high-frequency, and high-temperature devices. Thus, preparation of high quality single crystalline cubic silicon carbide and reproducible fabricated electronic devices based on 3C-SiC will have important technological impacts. In this thesis, we have developed a method for the fabrication of heterojunction Schottky diode gas sensors based on porous silicon and silicon carbide. Due to the large surface area of the porous layer, the adsorb gas species modify the I-V behavior of the Schottky diode or the silicon/silicon carbide heterojunction. It was found that the I-V behavior of the Schottky diodes strongly depends on the type of gases used. It was shown that a shift in the breakdown voltage ranging from I0V to 40V could be obtained depending on the structure of the gas sensor and the types of gas used. The porous silicon was made by anodization of p-type silicon using a mixture of hydrofluoric acid and ethanol. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) was used to grow silicon carbide. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) were used to verify the existence and stoichiometry of SiC in the prepared samples. X-Ray Diffraction and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) were used to verify the crystalline structure of resulting SiC. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) tests were used to view the surface morphology of resulting samples.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn the latest advances in SiC (Silicon Carbide) technology from the leading experts in the field with this new cutting-edge resource. The book is your single source for in-depth information on both SiC device fabrication and system-level applications. This comprehensive reference begins with an examination of how SiC is grown and how defects in SiC growth can affect working devices. Key issues in selective doping of SiC via ion implantation are covered with special focus on implant conditions and electrical activation of implants. SiC applications discussed include chemical sensors, motor-control components, high-temperature gas sensors, and high-temperature electronics. By cutting through the arcane data and jargon surrounding the hype on SiC, this book gives an honest assessment of today's SiC technology and shows you how SiC can be adopted in developing tomorrow's applications.

Book Synopsis Solid State Gas Sensors - Industrial Application by : Maximilian Fleischer
Download or read book Solid State Gas Sensors - Industrial Application written by Maximilian Fleischer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gas sensor products are very often the key to innovations in the fields of comfort, security, health, environment, and energy savings. This compendium focuses on what the research community labels as solid state gas sensors, where a gas directly changes the electrical properties of a solid, serving as the primary signal for the transducer. It starts with a visionary approach to how life in future buildings can benefit from the power of gas sensors. The requirements for various applications, such as for example the automotive industry, are then discussed in several chapters. Further contributions highlight current trends in new sensing principles, such as the use of nanomaterials and how to use new sensing principles for innovative applications in e.g. meteorology. So as to bring together the views of all the different groups needed to produce new gas sensing applications, renowned industrial and academic representatives report on their experiences and expectations in research, applications and industrialisation.
Book Synopsis Stoichiometry and Materials Science by : Alessio Innocenti
Download or read book Stoichiometry and Materials Science written by Alessio Innocenti and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide an overview on the importance of stoichiometry in the materials science field. It presents a collection of selected research articles and reviews providing up-to-date information related to stoichiometry at various levels. Being materials science an interdisciplinary area, the book has been divided in multiple sections, each for a specific field of applications. The first two sections introduce the role of stoichiometry in nanotechnology and defect chemistry, providing examples of state-of-the-art technologies. Section three and four are focused on intermetallic compounds and metal oxides. Section five describes the importance of stoichiometry in electrochemical applications. In section six new strategies for solid phase synthesis are reported, while a cross sectional approach to the influence of stoichiometry in energy production is the topic of the last section. Though specifically addressed to readers with a background in physical science, I believe this book will be of interest to researchers working in materials science, engineering and technology.
