Abstract

We report sensing properties of functionalized single walled carbon nanotubes (f-SWCNTs) deposited on the flexible substrate of silicon (Si) and polyethylene tereptaphalate (PET). Deposition of f-SWCNT on Si rubber and PET surface was conducted by applying different manner of spray coating and dip coating techniques, respectively. Surface modification of f-SWCNT by ZnO nanostructure was applied by hydrothermal process.The study was conducted to investigate the effect of substrate material and ZnO nanostructure on the f-SWCNT surface which embedded on those flexible polymer substrates. Morphological surface of f-SWCNT network and crystal structure of ZnO and f-SWCNT were also observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The results reveal that f-SWCNT on Si substrate (f-SWCNT/Si) do not have a good response in gas sensing performance. In meanwhile f-SWCNT on PET substrates (f-SWCNT/PET) is more sensitive about 1.6% with 3s in response. Surface structure of f –SWCNTs modified layer by ZnO nanostructure enhanced sensitivity and responsivenes of the sensor with sensitivity reached up 4.1% in 2s response after CO2 injection.It was observed that the ZnO nanostructured layer enhaced the sensing sensitivity and responsiveness of f-SWCNTs. The ZnO nanowires structure on the surface of f-SWCNTs has successfully improved the performance of CNTs as sensors. The bending treatment of up to 30% can reduce sensor sensitivity and change the configuration and arrangement of the CNT.
