Highly electron-depleted ZnO/ZnFe2O4/Au hollow meshes as an advanced material for gas sensing application

The size of sensing materials matters a lot to the performance of gas sensors. Herein, size-controlled three-component ZnO/ZnFe2O4/Au nanomeshes were elaborately prepared by combining electrospinning, atomic layer deposition and room-temperature solution reaction methods. The as-prepared ZnO/ZnFe2O4/Au is characterized by uniform ZnO nanotube skeletons (˜50 nm), ultrathin ZnFe2O4 nanosheets (˜10 nm) and well-dispersed Au nanoparticles. To...
