Abstract

The zincoxide thin film has been produced examined as a sensing element forH2S gasdetection. Dip coating was used to create the zinc oxide thin films. By varying the concentration of testgases, the gas sensing characteristics of zinc oxide thin films forH2S, LPG, NH3 gases were investigated.The produced zinc oxide thin films are a potential material for high-sensitivity semiconductor gassensors for dangerous gases such as H2S.
