- Abstract
- In this study, reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanosheets were synthesized and then functionalized with Pt nanoparticles (NPs) for gas sensing studies at room temperature. Pt-functionalized RGOs (Pt-RGOs) were irradiated by a 2 MeV electron beam with different doses of 100 and 500 kGy (Pt-RGO-100 and Pt-RGO-500) to study the role of electron beam irradiation (EBI) on properties and NO2 gas sensing characteristics. Different characterization techniques verified the generation of structural defects after EBI. Additionally, NO2 sensing tests at room temperature revealed that the Pt-RGO-100 sensor had the highest response to NO2 gas as well as the shortest response time. We surmise that the improved sensing signal with respect to NO2 gas for Pt-RGO-100 sensor was related to the role of oxygen functional groups. However, decreases in the response for Pt-RGO-500 sensor were related to the creation of reactive oxygen gases that could be adsorbed on the active defects of the RGO by the interaction of electron beams with oxygen species in the ambient air, leading to a decrease of the effective defect sites and decreases of the sensing response. This work suggests progress towards an improved performance of RGO-based gas sensors that can work at low temperature, by using EBI as a clean tool applied at room temperature with Pt-functionalization.
