Temperature-activated reverse sensing behavior of Pd nanowire hydrogen sensors

Abstract

Hydrogen sensors built with individual palladium nanowires (Pd NWs) have been achieved by integrating Pd NWs across microelectromechanical system (MEMS) electrodes, followed by assembling and bonding them to a chip carrier platform. The sensing measurements reveal that the sensors with individual Pd NWs show reverse sensing behaviors between the temperature zones of (370-263 K) and (263-120 K).
