An ultra-sensitive hydrogen gas sensor using reduced graphene oxide-loaded ZnO nanofibers

Abstract

We developed a hydrogen sensor of reduced graphene oxide-loaded ZnO nanofibers. An extremely high response of about 866 at a low concentration of 100 ppb was obtained. The combined effect of the presence of rGO nanosheets and hydrogen-induced metallization of ZnO played a crucial role in enhancing the detection behavior.
